Healthy Mind, Healthy Life

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty and retirement coach/author Lisa Haynes cut through the myths of retirement planning. This episode focuses on the non-financial side of retiring well—identity shifts, mental and emotional fitness, and building social connection after leaving work. Lisa breaks down her KILLIN’ IT framework—practical steps to keep moving, design purpose, and nurture networks—so you can build a post-career life you’re actually excited to live.

 

About the guest  

Lisa Haynes is a certified executive and retirement coach, former CFO, and author of Retired and Killing It. She helps current and soon-to-be retirees create purposeful, connected lives by planning the psychological, social, and lifestyle sides of retirement—not just the finances.

 

Key takeaways  

• Retirement is a transition, not a stop. Identity and purpose often wobble once the job title disappears; plan for this shift early.

• K — Keep moving: Protect mental, physical, and social health; don’t stay home multiple days without getting out.

• I — Imagine what’s next: Start with a clean whiteboard—travel, volunteering, part-time work, relocation, family time—then set real targets.

• L — Laugh a lot: Adults forget to play; joy and laughter have tangible health benefits.

• L — Live for legacy: Legacy is impact, not just money—share wisdom and contribute where you care.

• I — Ignite your passion: Purpose emerges when you spend time on energizing, meaningful activities.

• N — Nurture your network: Audit relationships; invest in a smaller, stronger circle for resilience and information flow.

• I — Invest in others: Mentor, teach, and give back; it reinforces meaning.

• T — Tell yourself you’re “killing it.” Self-encouragement matters on off days.

• First action today: Do the “Imagine What’s Next” exercise—list every interest, then pick one to act on this week.
