I’d recommend taking Design Your Best Retirement at least two years before you plan to retire and any time after you’ve retired. Just like it takes time to build a new home or remodel one, it takes time to design your retirement roadmap. And though you are months past retirement or even a few years post-retirement, it’s not too late to craft how you’d like to live in this third age of your life. |

I would recommend that you consult with your company’s HR office in regard to the particulars of their free retirement program. However, generally company based retirement programs are focused on the financial preparation for retirement. While that’s necessary and great, it’s only part of a larger picture. DYBR hones in and supports you to prepare yourself for the other part of the picture…how will I structure my life when I’m no longer working? DYBR provides you with a step-by-step process for crafting a fulfilling life in the Third Age. It gives you a methodology for making the choices that are right for you in terms of identity and purpose, creating positive relationships, and maintaining good health and well-being. . |

I don’t have an Internet connection. Could I still take the online evaluations? |
Yes, the entire DYBR program can be completed off-line. When you sign up, just request the off-line version. |

DYBR is a program for individuals entering Third Age, a powerful time of living your life as an older person. Although 3rd Age and retirement from working often occur in tandem, entering Third Age actually occurs whether you’re retiring from working or not. DYBR takes you through a stepwise process based in your important dreams and goals and gives you tools for making the right choices and sustaining focus and momentum toward your Third Age goals. After completing the DYBR program, you will have an individualized Roadmap to follow for your journey into this significant phase of your life. |
