Prioritizing Self-Care in Your Retirement Years


Hi Reader,

Retirement planning can be daunting, especially for women who often prioritize others over themselves.

How can women balance self-care with financial planning? What strategies can help them thrive in retirement?

Taylor Elyse Morrison turned being bad at self-care—and being firmly convinced of every human’s potential—into a career. She’s the founder of Inner Workout and the award-winning author of a book by the same name. Named one of Fortune’s 10 Innovators Shaping the Future of Health, Taylor is tired of aspirational 'wellness as usual.' Instead, makes well-being and personal development more accessible.

Eric Blake welcomes Taylor to discuss the importance of self-care, particularly for women navigating the complexities of retirement planning and caregiving.

Drawing from Taylor's experience, you will learn about creating personalized self-care routines and actionable steps to ensure well-being doesn't fall by the wayside.
