This chapter explores the significance of defining a purpose for early retirement and the hurdles that may arise post-exit, including feelings of emptiness, lack of daily structure, and the struggle to find a new community. The hosts also touch on a story of regret from someone who left their job in their mid-40s, missing meaningful work and the financial freedom for activities, leading them to return to full-time employment after a hiatus.
