Скачать или смотреть I Retired Early. Here's What They Don't Tell You.

I thought I was ready to retire early. I’d crunched the numbers, made the plans, and imagined slow mornings with coffee and no alarm clock.

But when I actually stepped into early retirement at 60… the biggest surprises weren’t about money.
They were emotional, identity-shaking, and honestly? A little lonely at times.

In this video, I’m sharing the REAL, unpolished side of retiring early that nobody warned me about – the loss of routine, the strange guilt, the shift in friendships, and the “now what?” feeling that crept in once the celebration was over.

If you’re thinking about retiring early, already retired, or you’ve found yourself blindsided by what life after work actually feels like, I want you to feel seen, prepared, and less alone.

I’m Roxanne, and on this channel – Reinventing Me at 60 , we talk about the emotional side of retirement, creating a new identity, and building a meaningful “next chapter” after decades of working. You are absolutely not “done” at this stage of life… you’re just getting started in a new way.
