378: Jordan Grumet, MD Interviews Casey Weade: Creating a Life of Meaning and Purpose and the Framework for a Successful Retirement

Today’s episode is a little different. I had the pleasure of being on Dr. Jordan Grumet’s Earn & Invest podcast and absolutely loved the content, so I’m sharing it with you all today. This is an in-depth discussion about what it truly means to find purpose at work, home and in retirement.

You might recognize Jordan’s name as he was my guest in May of this year. For those that don’t know, Jordan was an internal medicine physician before leaving his clinical practice to pursue a passion for deep conversations about money and life. 

He’s the author of Taking Stock: A Hospice Doctor’s Advice on Financial Independence, Building Wealth, and Living a Regret-Free Life, a full-time author and podcaster, and a regular contributor to Medscape, MarketWatch, and many other outlets.

In this conversation, we covered a wide range of topics, including the story of my own semi-retirement, what it truly means to be job optional, how to unlock your true potential and set yourself up for success before and during retirement.

In this podcast interview, you’ll learn:

• What I learned when my son was born with a congenital birth defect and I was forced into semi-retirement for six months.
• The value of taking sabbaticals well before you retire to start to understand what real retirement feels like.
• Why the conversations that should be happening with financial planners and retirement coaches don’t happen.
• How to use data to approach retirement given your unique background and circumstances.
• Why so many people are working in retirement today compared to the previous generation.
• Ways to think about and approach long-term care planning.
• The unique roadblocks likely to affect people planning for retirement in the next 20 years.
