I’ve always said that it’s important to retire to something rather than away from something. To do that means finding a sense of purpose. 

In this episode, we’ll explore an article from PhysicianOnFIRE.com that discusses how retirees can discover and maintain a sense of purpose in their lives after leaving the workforce.
