The Retirement Insiders closes out 2025 with a Best Of episode built around the core theme of life stewardship.
David Alexander and Tony Kalinowski revisit the moments that stayed with them long after recording, including Skip Vaccarello’s call to pursue “calling” over performance, the Brewers’ honest reflections on caregiving and why support matters, and Eric Camfield’s leadership lesson from Altar Fly Fishing on rhythm, burnout and surrender.
They also return to Dr. Leanne Clark-Shirley’s big picture challenge to reframe aging as opportunity and contribution, not decline. The result is a year end conversation that is less about retirement planning and more about purpose and what it means to lead well in every season of life.
If you are heading toward retirement, already in it or simply trying to live with more clarity and intention, this episode is a reset on what success should look like going forward.
