How to thrive in retirement, with Celia Dodd

The transition into retirement can be a hugely positive experience, but for some it can also be a challenge.

Freelance journalist and author, Celia Dodd, spent months interviewing retirees to understand what makes a successful retirement. In our interview, Celia shares her findings.

For many people, retirement is the first time they can do something that really matters to them. But finding your purpose can be trial and error.

Through real life stories, including that of her own father, Celia touches on the most influential factors of a positive retirement: social networks, staying curious, relationships and having purpose, in order to help remove the fear of retirement.
