“A person with no goals is one of the most dangerous people because they don’t know when to stop, or even what to go after.” ~Brent Hogan
Retirement is a word that conjures up images of finishing up a long and hard career, and entering into a new phase of relaxation, travel, and leisure. But retirement doesn’t only have to be about hanging up the scrubs and kicking back on a beach – it can be a multifaceted journey that requires careful planning and consideration.
In this episode of Everyday Practices Dental Podcast, co-host Regan Robertson is joined by Productive Dentist Academy Client Services Manager Brent Hogan as they discuss retirement, its evolution, and the possibilities that it brings for dentists looking to plan their lives beyond dentistry. Regan and Brent challenge the conventional view of retirement as an endpoint, urging listeners to refocus its definition and see it as a new beginning filled with different adventures. They emphasize the importance of understanding financial needs, evaluating the value of your dental practice, and setting realistic goals to ensure a secure and comfortable retirement.
Regan and Brent’s candid conversation also encourages dentists to begin discovering their “why,” explore their passions outside of dentistry and find purpose beyond their dental careers.
And as you listen to this episode, think about the following:
- What does your vision of retirement look like?
- Are you financially prepared for retirement?
- What is your post-dentistry mission or purpose? What would you like to accomplish following your dental career?
- Do you have a plan for transitioning out of your practice? What does it look like?
