252: Reinvention, Relevance and Return on Life in Retirement with Avivah Wittenberg-Cox

Today, I’m speaking with Avivah Wittenberg-Cox. Avivah is the CEO of 20-first, a global balance consultancy that works with C-suite teams to achieve gender and generational balance by focusing on leadership, culture, and systems. 

A regular contributor to Forbes and Harvard Business Review, she’s also the author of Seven Steps to Leading Gender-Balanced Businesses, Why Women Mean Business: Understanding the Emergency of Our Next Economic Revolution, and Late Love: Mating in Maturity.

Avivah’s work caught my eye when I came across her Forbes article entitled “Retirement, Redundancy, Rejection: The Extreme Emotionality of Ending” and I’m thrilled to have her on the show to dig into her thoughts and insights on retirement.

In today’s conversation, we talk about the amazing opportunities facing retirees today, as well as the challenges and extreme emotions retirees are facing, and the three Rs she wants people to think about as they approach retirement: reinvention, relevance, and return on life.
