RETIREMENT RE-IMAGINED:
You've planned the money, but have you planned for the rest?
Somewhere underneath the numbers is a quieter question, one you might not have said out loud yet. Who am I, once work stops answering that for me? What fills the six hours my job used to take up? Will I still matter to the people who used to need me?
This isn't a financial problem, it's an emotional one, and it's the part most retirement planning leaves out entirely. I'm Dr Jon Glass, an emotions coach who's spent 12+ years helping people navigate exactly this.
If any of that sounds familiar, you don't have to work it out alone.
What will your retirement look like?
Retirement is a new chapter in your life that could last for 10,000 days or more. How will you use this time?
Will you build a meaningful structure for your days, or hope it falls into place by itself?
At 64PLUS, I work with you to design a retirement that brings clarity, purpose and connection.
You don’t need to have this figured out before you begin. Click below to see how I can help.
What many people struggle with in retirement:
Lack of Purpose
Finding it hard to stay engaged and purposeful.
Loss of Identity
Struggling to redefine yourself without your professional role.
Social Isolation
Feeling lonely and disconnected from others.
Retirement can be harder than expected…
What this actually feels like:
The empty calendar
Wondering what's actually going to fill your days, once nothing's expecting you to show up.
Who you are now
Catching yourself unsure how to answer "so what do you do?" anymore.
The quiet you didn't expect
Noticing how much of your social world came from work, and how fast it can go quiet without it.
None of this is a sign something's wrong with you, it’s simply the part of retirement that almost nobody talks about, and it's exactly where coaching helps.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
No. I'm not a financial adviser, none of my work is financial in nature. I focus on the part financial planning doesn't cover: identity, purpose, and connection.
-
No. I'm not a psychologist, and I won't be digging through your past. Think of me as an emotions coach - practical, forward-focused conversations about the shape of your life now.
-
Not at all. Most people I work with are still working, and reach out because they can feel this coming before it arrives.
-
That's exactly what the free 15-minute call is for. Tell me where you're at, and I'll tell you honestly whether I think I can help - even if the answer's no.
-
Sydney, and I work with people face-to-face if you're local, or by phone and video Australia-wide.
What my clients are saying:
Brad D.
“I am so pleased that I had the opportunity to take advantage of your retirement coaching service, you are a great listener and communicator. You are able to bring both professional and practical experience to the psychological aspects of retirement, which unfortunately are often neglected by many retirees.”
Michael K.
“Having had a strong involvement in Retirement Planning and Financial Planning over many years I thought I was reasonably well prepared for retirement. However, Jon provided an extra dimension by broadening my outlook on the way ahead - while at the same time personalising strategies to be quite specific to my own circumstances. A worthwhile program.”
Peter T.
“I had an absolutely necessary discussion with Jon that identified how little preparation, other than the obvious financial preparation, I have really put into retirement planning. Better to have several years to plan and prepare now, than to discover the abyss the day following retirement.”
