The saying goes, “With age comes wisdom,” and “With time comes experience.” Retiring is one of the fundamental stages of life. While we typically experience our physical prime in our 20s, aging introduces challenges such as joint stiffness, heightened vulnerability to injuries, and slower recovery times, serving as markers as we approach retirement age. Retirement, however, is not a one-dimensional event; there is a distinction between "retiring from" a job or career and "retiring to" a new phase in life. Recognizing the multidimensional aspects of retirement equips us to prepare for this significant life transition. Philosophy professor Margaret "Peggy" Battin joins this episode of 7 Domains of Women’s Health to discuss the ethical considerations and complexities associated with retiring and offers insights into navigating this pivotal stage in life.
