Iris Shiraishi, took up Japanese Taiko drumming in her forties. Now, in her early sixties, she’s taking artistic, creative and career risks she says she couldn’t have taken earlier in life.

In this episode on Unretirement, we look at how creativity can be shaped by the expertise and skills that take a lifetime to develop.

Chris also talks with Richard Leider, an executive coach, best-selling author and founder of Inventure—the Purpose Company. Leider is the author or co-author of numerous books and the leading thinker behind Life Reimagined.

We’ll learn:

  • Why you may be more creative after fifty.
  • The shortcut to finding your purpose in life.
  • Why you don’t want to be a “former” anything in retirement.
  • The greatest regrets people have in life and how to act now so you can have fewer regrets.

Our listener question comes from Marcy. She asks Chris:

“How can self-employed workers best save for retirement?”
