Next Season Resources

• My Retirement, My Way — Veronica McCain — A workbook for people who want to think through retirement rather than simply plan the date. It includes questions, exercises, and space to explore what you want from this next part of life, including identity, relationships, time, and money.

• Retirement for Newbies — A Substack publication about preparing for retirement and navigating its early years, with writing on purpose, health, home, money, travel, happiness, motivation, and the lived experience of figuring out what comes next.

• The 6 Rs of Neuropsychotherapy — Arielle Schwartz — A short Insight Timer talk on relating, resourcing, repatterning, reprocessing, reflecting, and resilience. Although Schwartz is speaking specifically about trauma recovery, I especially like the discussion of supportive relationships, savoring positive experience, meaning-making, and our continuing capacity for change.

Books, articles, talks, and tools I’ve found genuinely useful for thinking about retirement, transition, and the life you want to build next.
