Moolala:  Money Made Simple with Bruce Sellery

Retire Often: How to Take Mini Retirements Without Derailing Your Finances


Listen Later

What if you didn’t have to wait until 65 to enjoy retirement? Bruce sits down with Jillian Johnsrud — coach, speaker, and author of Retire Often: How Anyone Can Take Multiple Career Breaks to Unlock Adventure, Advance Their Career, and Find Financial Freedom.

Jillian shares how mini retirements — intentional breaks of a month or longer — can help you reset, pursue meaningful goals, travel, or spend time with family without sacrificing your long-term financial health. She explains:

  • How to budget for a mini retirement: replace one month of income and cap extra costs at ~50% of take-home pay
  • Why it’s smart to front-load affordable, physically demanding adventures early in life
  • Creative ways to offset costs, from renting out your home to home exchanges
  • How mini retirements can actually advance your career by reducing burnout and opening new opportunities
  • The mindset shifts needed to see career breaks as investments rather than setbacks
  • If you’ve ever dreamed of backpacking across Europe, taking a sabbatical to write a book, or just having the time to breathe between career chapters, this conversation gives you the financial planning tools, creative strategies, and inspiration to make it happen — without blowing up your future retirement plans.
