My Time: How to Make the Rest of Your Life the Best of Life

Author(s): Joan Baker & Mandy Fealey

Ageing Well

Joan Baker, successful author and business coach, and Mandy Fealy, psychologist and development consultant, address the crucial question of My Time to help people start to think about what they will do after their full time work life.


Joan's message is that these decisions are best made well before retirement, when there is time to plan the sort of future you want – not the one you end up with. There are many challenges involved in this transition: 'hard' ones concerning finances, investments, wills, paid work, etc, and 'soft' ones around lifestyle and relationships.


The babyboomers - the largest demographic in New Zealand society, are mostly on the brink of some form of retirement, and many of them have not made any real plans for their future. Many people have vague plans involving spending more time with their family, overseas travel, meaningful part-time work, but without laying the groundwork early, these things are often just not possible. My Time will help readers live the rest of life as the best of life.
