We Live in a Culture that Values Youth with Dale Power

What happens when the career you’ve built your identity around… comes to an end?
In this episode, I sit down with Dale Power, founder of Share Your Courage and creator of Reimagining Retirement, to explore a topic that is rarely talked about — but deeply felt.
We talk about why so many people prepare financially for retirement, but completely overlook the personal side—purpose, identity, and meaning. Dale shares how retirement brings three major shifts: loss of structure, changes in community, and a redefinition of identity — and why these can feel more challenging than expected.
This conversation goes far beyond retirement. It’s about how we define success, how we attach ourselves to titles, and how we can intentionally design a life that feels fulfilling at every stage.
We also explore how outdated cultural narratives shape the way we think about aging and work, and what becomes possible when we start asking better questions about what we actually want.
This episode is a reminder that your next chapter isn’t something you fall into — it’s something you get to create.
