Description

What if the hardest part of retirement isn’t money, markets, or even health but your identity? 

In this episode of Retirement Planning Simplified, Joe Curry talks with Elizabeth Zelinka Parsons, retirement transition expert and author of Encore: A High Achiever’s Guide to Thriving in Retirement.

Elizabeth shares her own story of leaving a demanding law career, struggling with a loss of purpose, and rebuilding her identity in a way that now helps others do the same. Together, Joe and Elizabeth talk about why retirement is more than a finish line, it's a reinvention.
