055 Lessons learnt from interviewing interesting people, part 1

This week we are celebrating the first anniversary of The Retirement Café Podcast.   Believe it or not, we’re on episode 55 and week 52 of the podcast, so I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to look back at the lessons I’ve learnt over that time from some of the fascinating people I’ve interviewed.   I wasn’t too sure what to expect when I set out on this podcast journey. I knew I would be aiming to talk to lots of people about all aspects of retirement life, and it’s certainly true that I’ve chatted to a diverse group of people.   As I look back at all the conversations, a number of themes pop up that are central to many of my conversations. So, I wanted to take this opportunity - one year on from launch - to share the first 3 of 7 lessons I’ve learnt from chatting with interesting guests.   1- Everyone has a story   2 - Retirement as we know it is dead   3 - It’s never too late to do something important to you
