The Retirement Rehearsal

Maeve Sutton

Most people plan for retirement's money and never plan for its Tuesdays. This is a way to test the days before they arrive: how to sketch a week that has shape without a job filling it, which routines from working life are worth keeping, where purpose tends to quietly drain away, and small trial runs you can take now so the real transition feels familiar instead of empty. Grounded, forward-looking, and honest about what changes.
