Why So Many People Are Choosing to Enter Retirement Solo (And Why It Makes Perfect Sense)

More people are choosing to enter retirement solo — and not because they’ve given up on love. In this video, I share why so many women and men are choosing a solo second act intentionally. As we get older, our priorities shift. Peace, autonomy, emotional bandwidth, and quality of life begin to matter more than meeting outdated expectations. I also share a personal story about dating after divorce — not from a place of fear or bitterness, but from clarity and self-knowledge. Sometimes it’s not about whether we can be in a relationship… it’s about whether we want to do the work that a healthy relationship requires. This conversation is about how we think differently as we age — and why choosing a solo retirement can be a thoughtful, fulfilling, and intentional decision. If you’re navigating retirement, solo living, or your own second act, you’re not alone — and you’re not doing it wrong.
