What did I learn in my first year after retiring early? In today's "Rewind" post, I re-share a long archived article from my old blog that captured my thoughts on that huge life transition.

This morning I decided to write on a very personal topic. For all we talk about time freedom in the FIRE community, sometimes it takes difficult situations to understand the true value of that freedom.

Traveling more often and for longer periods is a common goal in retirement. Does slow travel live up to expectations or is it overrated? All this and more in today's episode. https://t.co/G0hSV8iJh1

A big decision prompted my latest post. How do you know when it’s time to stop doing something, and how does it feel once you have done so? All this and more in today’s entry. @twosidesoffi https://t.co/PDhdc8wX66

How lucky am I to get to work with a great friend of over four decades on something so personally meaningful? I sure wouldn't have expected that when we started our little project four years ago... https://t.co/YREg2fbySW

[The Next Phase is Now @NextPhaseIsNow]

I really enjoy viewer questions so looking forward to this! Comment on the video with any questions you'd like to see Eric and I tackle

[Two Sides of FI @twosidesoffi]

Got a question you'd like us to tackle? We're doing an AMA for Episode 100! Comment on this video with your questions https://t.co/42QziZoEw8

[The Next Phase is Now @NextPhaseIsNow]

Earnestly, I think this is one of our best and most relatable chats in recent memory. We both really enjoyed it and think you will too.

Do some who achieve financial independence find it difficult to retire, even if it was their plan all along? Are we just wired to work hard or is there more to it? In today's ep, Eric candidly shares his own experience. https://t.co/6orslpmLu0

Today I wrote an unexpected postlude to last year's Camino de Santiago journey. The idea came to me while taking my first solo long-ish walk since returning home more than 300 days ago. https://t.co/M0ttLFgoLm

After decades of only taking vacations that we planned and coordinated on our own, we finally took a group tour. What was that like and what did we think about our two weeks in Peru? Check it out!

It was great getting the chance to talk about all that I brought home from my Camino. Thanks for watching!

[Two Sides of FI @twosidesoffi]

If I hadn’t retired early, I could never have done this. No way! https://t.co/EUzaHHNlbh

My #camino post 2 is up, in which I talk about what I'm packing to bring on my upcoming walk from Porto to Santiago, following the Camino Portugués. https://t.co/xWyNOsuvaR

Thanks to @stingynomads for their incredible resources including this great map that I've carelessly drawn all over...

In 30 days I'm leaving on the biggest adventure of my life. I think it will prove to be a vital experience in this next chapter of my post-career life. Thanks for checking it out! https://t.co/UiAVCcqtzR

Can you still call yourself retired if you continue to do any work for money? Let's discuss!
