Life Chapters, Money Choices

When the Paycheque Stops


Listen Later

What happens when your career ends but your purpose hasn't yet begun?

In this episode of Life Chapters, Money Choices, host Michael Avery is joined by retired executive Ronelle Baker, and life planning coach Kim Potgieter, to explore what really happens when the salary ends and the silence sets in.

Ronelle shares her powerful story of retiring early, chasing freedom, and then realising that fulfilment takes more than free time and lots of overseas trips. From resistance to renewal, she takes us through the emotional curve of reinvention and how a move to a Mature Lifestyle Estate helped her rediscover meaning, joy, and community.

Together, we explore:

  • Letting go of status and work identity
  • The emotional reality vs. the dream of retirement
  • Why “Retiremeant™” is about retiring to something
  • How place, people, and purpose can redefine your second act

Subscribe, reflect, and share this episode with anyone preparing for - or recovering from - a major life shift.

🎧 Tune in. Be brave. Be on purpose.
