WHAT WE’RE LOVING

🎤 Podcast: How Retirement Changes Your Identity
In this podcast, Teresa Amabile, a semi-retired professor at Harvard Business School, shares her research on how ending your work career affects your sense of self. Amabile and her team dive into the psychological shifts that take place leading up to, and during, retirement and identify two main processes that individuals go through: life restructuring and identity bridging.
