Often times in life, expectations and reality diverge. The weather forecast may call for rain but then it’s sunny all day. Or your map app says it will take 45 minutes to reach your destination, but an unexpected detour takes an hour and a half. Some things turn out better, others may turn out worse, and others may simply be totally different than expected.

While these disconnects happen in our daily experiences, they can also happen with major milestones in our lives, whether embarking on a career, getting married and starting a family, moving to a new location – and retiring.
