How Retirement Can Challenge Your Relationship - a podcast by Maria Lucassen, CPRC, DTM

The time right before and after retirement can be an emotional roller coaster. Even when retirement came after a long wait and a lot of planning, finally crossing the threshold can bring unexpected thoughts and feelings. For couples there are many questions and issues to consider when planning and preparing for retirement together.
Sharing half a life-time of working and raising children, some couples are shocked to discover how far apart they have drifted. To reach the stage in their lives when they can spend more time together, couples often realize interests are not the same. If a partner doesn’t share in the hopes and dreams, the matrimonial union will become unhappy.
Today I talk with Retirement and Relationship coach Marianne Oehser about the challenges and opportunities that can impact the happiness in retirement as a married couple. What to do now that both will be home together all day? Be willing to surprise yourself and discover yourself anew. And inspire your spouse too.
