The First Step - Women's Only Retirement Planning Workshops

This is to announce RA Retirement Advisors is now offering The First Step 'women's only' retirement planning workshops. 

Though many retirement issues are common to both men and women, there are a number of retirement issues women want guidance and discussion in the company of other women.  Included are: financial literacy, putting self first, finding new friends, weight loss or gain, elder care and others are part in our new 'women's only' workshops.

Participants learn about how to create a holistic retirement plan including: the importance of having a detailed vision of retirement, the need for a positive attitude, how to build a balanced leisure, health and wellbeing strategy, steps to enriching relationships, how to find and use a retirement coach or mentor and steps to living retirement to its fullest!

Through workbook exercises, case discussion, group discussion and lecturettes, participants will create a personal plan to enhance life after work.  They discuss concerns and are provided with suggested action steps.
