Thinking about retirement—or helping others prepare? Here are 3 key takeaways to keep in mind:
1. Legacy Doesn’t Happen by Accident
Roughly two-thirds of Americans haven’t done any estate planning. Intentional planning is an act of love—it removes uncertainty and stress for your family. Don’t leave your legacy to chance or state laws. Start the conversation now.
2. Retirement with Purpose Starts with the Right Foundation
Mike outlines five pillars of a faith-driven retirement: Time, Calling, Financial Finish Line, Radical Generosity, and Legacy. These guideposts help shape retirement into a season of meaning, impact, and joy.
3. Family Conversations Are More Powerful Than You Think
Talking with your loved ones—especially adult children—about your plans brings clarity, peace, and stronger stewardship across generations. It’s not just about money. It’s about preparing hearts and minds for what’s ahead.
Whether you’re nearing retirement or advising those who are, this episode is packed with helpful, faith-rooted insights on planning for a future that matters.
