1/22 Deciding to Retire

Ritualizing retirement. Who am I without my job? Being vs doing. How will I reinvent myself? Letting go of who I used to be/discovering who I can become. My body – yikes! Finding purpose and joy in the face of diminishing capacities.

1/29 What do I want to do with the rest of my life?

Do I want to downsize? When is it time to move to Ashby Ponds? How I want to use my resources: have fun? repair the world? Navigating changing family relationships.

2/5 Preparing for the end (one of these days)

What if I become my partner’s caretaker? What if I need care? Where do I want to be planted? What would I like on my gravestone? Medical/legal preparations. 

2/26 Losing a Partner/Finding your new self

Navigating grief. Recreating yourself as a solo. What do I with the wedding rings? Learning to do the things your partner used to do. Navigating changing family relationships, again! Could I ever imagine dating again?

3/5 Writing my Ethical Will

What values do I want to leave for my children/grandchildren/community? How can I work to see that my cherished values live on?
