One of the top questions people have about retirement is how much do you need to have saved? When coming up with a number, are you actually on track for retirement or just comparing your savings to others? Today we’re going to tackle this question by breaking down retirement savings, income strategies, and how to avoid common financial mistakes.
With the pressures of societal expectations and conventional wisdom, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed and uncertain about your financial future. But every individual’s financial situation is unique, and comparing oneself to others can lead to unnecessary stress and misguided decisions. This episode will help you see why it’s so important to focus on your own financial goals and needs, which is what a financial advisor can assist with.
Here’s what we discuss in today’s show:
📊 Should you compare your savings to others? Why it’s a mistake
💰 How much do you really need to retire? It’s not a one-size-fits-all answer
⚠️ Common financial myths that can derail your retirement
🤔 Are you actually spending more than you think?
👥 Why getting financial advice from friends & coworkers can be risky
Key Takeaway
"No two thumbprints are the same. That's how I think of retirement planning."

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
