How We Got Started

I found myself retiring without a purpose. I discovered it was not the place to be and worked hard to find alternatives. So for the past 9 years I've been helping others make the transition into the new adventure retirement ought to be. Do you remember what it was like to go on an adventure when you were a kid? Our retirement should feel the same. Don't you think?
