Living your best life in retirement - how Linda's post-work years are among her best yet

Linda shares her story and retirement experiences. From unconscious bias to thermal underwear, this episode is guaranteed to leave you thinking about your financial future in a different way.

Linda is a former civil servant who worked for 45 years at HM Revenue & Customs before retiring in 2019. Her retirement story is unique, and she gives us a lot of food for thought about planning for our own financial futures.

From studying for a degree and volunteering at Southwark Cathedral, to navigating the unconscious bias in society as a post-menopausal woman, it's clear that Linda's retirement years are proving to be the best ones yet, and many of the things she's doing are made possible because of her Civil Service pension.

She also shares some words of wisdom for members approaching retirement about how to mentally prepare for one of the biggest lifestyle changes you'll ever experience, and how it's never too early to start thinking about your retirement - even if you're in your 20s and 30s.
