In this episode, Ben Taatjes examines why so many retirees fall into the trap of living someone else's retirement - filling their days with activities they don't truly enjoy simply because it's what others do. Drawing wisdom from Proverbs 23:7, 'For as a man thinks, so he is,' Ben reveals how your deepest beliefs about yourself shape your retirement reality. Learn why authentic self-knowledge is the foundation for meaningful retirement choices and discover practical steps for aligning your retirement with who you truly are, not who others expect you to be.
