Client Praise
“I’m so glad that I got the chance to work with Cara. I was feeling lost, retirement was something I planned for financially but not what I’d do with my time. Not only did Cara make it clear that I wasn’t the only person feeling this way, but she gave me direction. Talking through things with someone else helped me understand what it was I was missing and what I needed to fill my time with so I could get that sense of accomplishment I was missing. Cara provided me with an incredibly detailed Blueprint with steps and action plans to hold myself accountable but it was also flexible enough to anticipate future desires when I wanted to take another path. Would recommend working with Cara to anyone considering, entering or already in retirement.”
One of the best things I've done since retiring just over a year ago was hire a third act consultant.
I'm not big on life or business coaches, and I never would have thought to hire someone to help me with retirement, but then Cara Gray popped up in my inbox and lo and behold...
At 64, I feel like life is just getting started. 🌅
No lie. I now have a curated "third act blueprint," which lists a gazillion ideas and links for my social life, health and wellness, food, travel, purposeful work/volunteering, and I forget what else.
Now if I'm ever wondering what to do with myself, because I'm no longer WORKING working, I go to my blueprint and I'm off and running again.
If you're facing retirement and worried about what you'll do with all that "free time," I highly recommend investing in Cara's third act consulting.
If not a consultant, start listening to podcasts on retirement. There's no shortage of them and you'll quickly learn how amazing your "third act" can be. 💃 🕺
