The Rest of Your Story - by Dave Corbett (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

This year, around four million baby boomers are looking to retire. Corbett's book focusses on the transitional years after one retires. We need a fresh start, a new perspective on how to view life without the shackles of the past. Instead of just moving on, he inspires readers to think of retirement as a graduation to something more. As you navigate through your next stage of life, give yourself permission to think differently. New opportunities will emerge.

--Dave Corbett
