Through her journey, she discovered that life—and retirement—are about much more than simply leaving a job. In 2019, while house-sitting in Mexico, Jacquie stumbled into podcasting and launched Beyond Retirement, a show that ran for 264 episodes and featured conversations with both experts and everyday individuals about building a fulfilling life outside the 9-to-5. Now fully living her Beyond Retirement lifestyle, Jacquie helps others design meaningful post-career lives filled with curiosity, freedom, and purpose. She enjoys traveling and international house/pet sitting, made possible thanks to the love and support of her husband and two adult daughters, who keep things running smoothly at home while she’s away.<br />In this episode, Shawn and Jacquie Doucette discuss:<ul><li>How Jacquie transitioned from a military structure to an open-ended retirement life</li><li>The origin and impact of her podcast, Beyond Retirement</li><li>Why having a purpose is essential in retirement</li><li>Common fears around identity loss and how to find fulfillment beyond a career</li><li>The power of play, exploration, and dreaming again as retirement strategies</li></ul><br />Key Takeaways:<ul><li>Retirement isn’t a destination—it’s a new path that can be longer and more fulfilling than your career.</li><li>You don’t need to figure out your post-retirement life in the first month—take time, explore, and adjust.</li><li>Living with purpose doesn’t mean a rigid schedule—it means knowing which direction will move you forward.</li><li>Your dreams from childhood might still have value—unpack them and see where they lead.</li><li>Retirement planning is more than finances—it’s also about curiosity, community, and joy.</li></ul><br />"Living with purpose means having a clear idea.

With a decade-long journey toward financial independence, Brenda brings a thoughtful and intentional approach to retirement planning. From house hacking and real estate investments to advanced medical degrees funded through scholarships and stipends, Brenda has carved out a future rooted in balance, preparation, and joy. As a Latina woman in finance and healthcare, she also advocates for women to take charge of their money and build lives of security and freedom.<br />In this episode, Shawn and Brenda discuss:<ul><li>The early lessons Brenda learned as a nurse and how they shaped her retirement mindset</li><li>Real estate, investing, and the moment she realized she was “Coast FIRE”</li><li>Navigating financial planning as a woman and Latina</li><li>The emotional and practical reasons to prepare early for healthcare and long-term care</li><li>Why involvement in community, not just work, is essential to a meaningful retirement</li></ul><br />Key Takeaways:<ul><li>Many older adults live on limited income and struggle to afford basic care. Brenda saw this firsthand in her medical practice.</li><li>“Coast FIRE” means having invested enough that you could coast to retirement, even without additional contributions.</li><li>Financial independence isn’t just about early retirement—it’s about choice, flexibility, and peace of mind.</li><li>Community engagement can give life meaning after leaving the workforce and help prevent isolation.</li><li>Women should feel empowered to understand and lead their financial futures, no matter their relationship status.</li></ul><br />"My life is not centered around my work. I really try to make a point to be embedded in my community so that when I leave my work, I'm not isolated… that when the job that pays is not necessary anymore, my life is not empty." - Brenda Olmos<br />Connect with Brenda Olmos:  Email: almostbrenda@gmail.com Social Media LinksWebsite: <a href="https://www.bswhealth.com/nurse-practitioner/brenda-olmos" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.bswhealth.com/nurse-practitioner/brenda-olmos</a> LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/olmosphd/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.linkedin.com/in/olmosphd/</a> <br />Get a free copy of Shawn’s book “The Priority of Retirement” here- <a href="https://www.retirewisepro.com/the-priority-of-retirement" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.retirewisepro.com/the-priority-of-retirement</a><br /><br />Contact Shawn:<a href="https://www.retirewisepro.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Website</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiIMGdosN-snkV5gFt7FRSg" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">YouTube</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/shawn-maloney-retire-wise" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">LinkedIn</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/retirewise_llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Instagram</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/ShawnMaloney.RetirementPlanning/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Facebook</a><br /><br />Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

As a Latina woman in finance and healthcare, she also advocates for women to take charge of their money and build lives of security and freedom.<br />In this episode, Shawn and Brenda discuss:<ul><li>The early lessons Brenda learned as a nurse and how they shaped her retirement mindset</li><li>Real estate, investing, and the moment she realized she was “Coast FIRE”</li><li>Navigating financial planning as a woman and Latina</li><li>The emotional and practical reasons to prepare early for healthcare and long-term care</li><li>Why involvement in community, not just work, is essential to a meaningful retirement</li></ul><br />Key Takeaways:<ul><li>Many older adults live on limited income and struggle to afford basic care. Brenda saw this firsthand in her medical practice.</li><li>“Coast FIRE” means having invested enough that you could coast to retirement, even without additional contributions.</li><li>Financial independence isn’t just about early retirement—it’s about choice, flexibility, and peace of mind.</li><li>Community engagement can give life meaning after leaving the workforce and help prevent isolation.</li><li>Women should feel empowered to understand and lead their financial futures, no matter their relationship status.</li></ul><br />"My life is not centered around my work. I really try to make a point to be embedded in my community so that when I leave my work, I'm not isolated… that when the job that pays is not necessary anymore, my life is not empty." - Brenda Olmos<br />Connect with Brenda Olmos:  Email: almostbrenda@gmail.com Social Media LinksWebsite: <a href="https://www.bswhealth.com/nurse-practitioner/brenda-olmos" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.bswhealth.com/nurse-practitioner/brenda-olmos</a> LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/olmosphd/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.linkedin.com/in/olmosphd/</a> <br />Get a free copy of Shawn’s book “The Priority of Retirement” here- <a href="https://www.retirewisepro.com/the-priority-of-retirement" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.retirewisepro.com/the-priority-of-retirement</a><br /><br />Contact Shawn:<a href="https://www.retirewisepro.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Website</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiIMGdosN-snkV5gFt7FRSg" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">YouTube</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/shawn-maloney-retire-wise" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">LinkedIn</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/retirewise_llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Instagram</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/ShawnMaloney.RetirementPlanning/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Facebook</a><br /><br />Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

With a background in engineering and business, Brian’s journey took a transformative turn after a mid-life wake-up call that led him to redefine wealth, not just in terms of numbers, but in terms of meaning and autonomy. Today, he champions the concept of “meaningful freedom,” helping his clients craft customized lifestyle plans that prioritize time, purpose, and flexibility. Brian blends strategy and storytelling to guide others toward a balanced life that works for them, not the other way around.<br />Key Takeaways:<ul><li>Meaningful freedom is about the autonomy to work when, where, and how you want, not necessarily quitting work altogether.</li><li>Your money personality—whether you’re a saver, a maker, or a minimizer—can influence how you reach your time and financial goals.</li><li>Adding flexible income to your retirement planning drastically shortens the timeline to freedom.</li><li>You can start your journey with simple steps like taking the first Friday of every month off to experience “mini-sabbaticals.”</li></ul><br />"I call this thing finding your one thing.
