Ask a Retirement Coach!

Retirement is a significant life changing event that can be filled with opportunity. But retirement can also be time of challenge.

The shift from a career to retirement isn’t just about managing your money; it’s a big life change that affects pretty much everything—how you spend your time, how you see yourself, and even how you relate to others.

Many people struggle with the loss of their professional identity and the social connections that came with their job. Then there’s the adjustment to having so much free time. It might sound great, but it can actually be a bit overwhelming.

Family dynamics can also come into play when you retire. Your plans might affect your spouse, children, or even your friends.

This is where a retirement coach can help. And Antoinette Petrillo is here for you.

Antoinette Petrillo is a former financial executive with over 25 years of experience leading teams and certified retirement coach. Upon retiring, she noticed a lack of support for professionals transitioning to retirement.
