Turning Point creates a space for people to develop career and life strategies that free them to live and work courageously through unavoidably turbulent times. Because many people approaching retirement will enjoy good health and vitality for another 30 or 40 years, there’s actually room for another whole lifetime! Aging Baby Boomers aren’t ready for rocking chairs; they want to start new companies/careers, or dare to try something they’ve always dreamed of. Turning Point will help you triumph over uncertainty and maybe even chase your dreams into reality.

Our program is geared for pre-retirees and early retirees who want to make the most out of what’s next in their lives. The SSP Retirement Program has been designed to assist you in these ways: *Formulate a personal definition of “success” for your late career or retirement years. *Answer the critical questions of what you want to BE, HAVE, and DO in the next phase of your life. *Understand the importance of bold, possibility thinking in planning for transition and retirement. *Identify the connection between financial planning/well-being and retirement planning/well-being. Our Program is presented in two parts. In part one of this program, you will focus on life style issues, questions, and possibilities that impact satisfaction with your transition into the retirement years or a late career redirection. Within part two, the content centers on financial and other realities that affect these choices. For further information on this service, contact Mike Broscio at 847 940-7500.
