You need enough purpose to wake up in the morning and enough money to sleep at night.
More than 10 years ago, Peter de Kuster broke through the ceiling of retirement planning with his groundbreaking project, Passion Never Retires. He changed the conversation about retirement from one focused solely on money to one focused on purpose.
In Passion Never Retires Coaching Peter moves that conversation to the next level by challenging advisors to step up, broaden their capacity, and embrace a new role: Passion Never Retires Coach. Passion Never Retires coaching is the future of retirement planning—this new approach represents the value proposition that will separate successful advisors from the rest.
Advisors making the transition to Passion Never Retires coaching understand the characteristics of Passion Never Retires :
- Passion: If you don’t engage your body or your brain, you lose them.
- Purpose: Money can fund purpose, but it cannot create purpose.
- Portfolio: There needs to be a balance in your Portfolio life between vacation and vocation.
- Power: You tell yourself a powerful story about yourself to yourself which makes you engage in physical, intellectual, and spiritual challenges which are the hallmarks of those who continue to thrive as they age.
Whether an audience member is an advisor or an advisor’s client, Peter will inspire and ignite participants as he challenges them. Peter has been challenging and inspiring people around the world for close to 15 years with his unique insights into the pitfalls of traditional retirement and what is needed to create a life and work you love and never want to retire from. Audience members will walk away from this exciting presentation with a new story (and vision) of what retirement is.
Join us for a truly transformational vacation for the mind.
Read on for a detailed breakdown of the Passion Never Retires itinerary.
