This week's episode is a little different.

Rather than discussing investments or retirement strategies, Lee takes a moment to reflect on gratitude, opportunity, and the perspective that shapes the way we experience life. Recording from his new office for the first time, he shares what the building truly represents: another opportunity to serve others and continue building something meaningful.

Lee also explores how gratitude can transform the way we view our circumstances and what makes America so unique despite its imperfections. As Independence Day approaches, this conversation serves as a reminder to appreciate the freedoms we enjoy, the people who sacrificed to protect them, and the countless opportunities available to each of us.

Here’s what we discuss in today’s show:

🏢 New Beginnings: Reflecting on growth and purpose

Summer's here. And somewhere between the excitement of planning a big trip and the anxiety of what it costs, a lot of retirees end up doing something that surprises us… they feel guilty about it. They worked hard, they saved, they planned for decades, and then they second-guess a beach vacation. Today, let's talk about how travel fits into a real retirement plan and how to enjoy it without guilt.

Here’s what we discuss in today’s show:

✈️ Retirement is the time to enjoy the experiences you've spent decades planning for.

💰 Creating a dedicated travel fund can make spending feel intentional instead of stressful.

🧠 The psychology of spending often becomes more challenging once the paycheck stops.

🌎 Most retirees travel more in the early years of retirement and gradually slow down over time.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Many retirees are choosing experiences and family travel over simply leaving larger inheritances.
