Retirement Coaching –The Next Niche is Here

Looking for your niche?
A frequently sought after question of professional coaches.

As I predicted in my first edition of, Therapist as Life Coach, the need for retirement coaching is imminent.

Well coaches, it’s here!

In January, the Baby Boomer Generation just cashed their first social security check with hundreds more to follow in the next 20 years. Wikipedia defines the Generation as a, “North American-English term used to describe a person who was born between 1946 and 1964,” a generation known for its innovativeness.  The Boomers have witnessed the coming of many major events in their formative years (Sputnik, Beatle Invasion and Martin’s Dream) that there is no doubt retirement will be a pioneering age for this group as well.

We are living longer, well into our golden years. Coaching is indeed a tool to help us transition into the second part of their lives. The coaching model is a perfect fit for busy, active Boomers and the generations to follow.

Let’s all try to share the gift of coaching with each other.
