What if the greatest risk to your retirement has nothing to do with your finances?

In this must-hear episode of the RichLife Retirement Show, Beau Henderson sits down with retirement coach and best-selling author Bob Laura to discuss the hidden dangers most retirement plans completely ignore: emotional health, identity loss, social isolation, and lack of purpose.

Bob, a former social worker turned retirement expert, reveals why the emotional side of retirement is the least talked about — and yet most dangerous — aspect of the transition. 

You’ll learn why retirement is one of the top 10 most stressful life events, and what you can do now to avoid falling into the common traps of boredom, depression, and disconnection.

Whether you’re planning to retire in 10 years or are already there, this episode will challenge the way you think about “retirement readiness.” 

Maxed-out retirement accounts alone won’t guarantee happiness or fulfillment. Without a plan for your time, relationships, and personal identity, retirement can quickly become “retirement empty.”

You’ll discover:

  • Why financial plans fall short without emotional preparation
  • The shocking statistics around suicide and isolation among retirees
  • The “Perfect Day” and “Perfect Week” exercise that rewires your post-career vision
  • How to apply the PERMA model from positive psychology to your retirement plan
  • Why written non-financial planning is a must, not a luxury
