Easing Into Retirement: My Journey With Part-Time Work

Finding the right way to transition into retirement can be daunting, but for me, shifting to part-time work at my current job has been a game changer. At 59, I wasn’t quite ready to leave behind the daily rhythm and the camaraderie I’d built over the years. Working fewer hours has given me space to explore new hobbies and spend more time with family, while still staying connected to my professional community. It’s allowed me to gradually adjust to the idea of retirement, rather than making an abrupt change. If you’re considering this path, I recommend having open conversations with your employer, planning your finances carefully, and being honest with yourself about your needs.
