OM DENNE EPISODE
Retirement isn't just the end of a career. For many executives, it's the first time they've had to redefine who they are without the title they've spent decades earning.
So why do so many accomplished leaders struggle with this transition? And what can they do now to prepare for what's next?
My guest today is Dr. Kelly Ottman, executive coach, researcher, and founder of Leadership Portals. After interviewing executives before and after retirement, she uncovered surprising patterns about identity, relationships, and the skills people need to thrive in the next chapter.
In this episode, we covered:
- Why the word "retirement" makes executives flinch
- The surprising skills many leaders find out they're missing after leaving work
- Why "I'll just join a few boards" isn't as simple as it sounds
- Losing your prestige vs. losing your credibility (and why they're not the same thing)
- What Kelly encourages people to create instead of a bucket list
- What organizations overlook when preparing leaders for retirement

We tend to avoid anything we won't be instantly good at. Richard Sparks has spent forty years proving that instinct is wrong.
Richard is a writer who has spent 40 years bouncing between comedy sketches, TV scripts, opera translations, and now fantasy novels. He wrote for a young Rowan Atkinson …
Life has a way of telling us when something needs to change, even when we aren't ready to listen.
My guest today, Mark Feinberg, spent years building companies, serving on boards, and chasing success. From the outside, everything looked right. But internally, Mark knew something was missing.

What did you love before work and responsibility took over?
As kids, we followed our curiosity without worrying whether an interest was productive or impressive. Somewhere along the way, many of us leave those parts of ourselves behind.
