Double Click Part 14: Generative Work - Creating Beyond Yourself in Retirement

Double Click Part 14: Generative Work - Creating Beyond Yourself in Retirement14 aug25 min

Continuing the 'Double Click' miniseries, Ben Taatjes introduces a transformative concept: generative work in retirement. While it may seem counterintuitive, Ben is decidedly pro-work in retirement - just not the kind you left behind. Generative work is fundamentally different. It's the kind of work that connects you deeper to who you actually are and what you were created to do. Rather than working to stay busy or fill time, generative work produces something beyond yourself - impact, legacy, transformation, and meaning. In this first part of exploring this concept, Ben clearly defines what generative work is and, equally important, what it is not. Discover how this kind of work becomes the bridge between the significance your career once provided and the deeper purpose your soul truly craves in retirement.
