Hi, I'm Christine Benz from Morningstar and welcome to the How to Retire podcast. It's a companion to my book, which is also called How to Retire. Each episode will provide a bite-sized lesson about how to do some aspect of retirement well.

One big question that people often grapple with as they contemplate retirement is whether they'll have enough, financially and otherwise, in retirement. To help address that question, I sat down with author and personal finance expert, Manisha Thakor. She wrote a book called MoneyZen: The Secret to Finding Your "Enough". She is also the founder of MoneyZen, which is a financial education consultancy.
