Health Is the Real Retirement Plan

Health Is the Real Retirement Plan

Melissa and I just returned from a wonderful trip abroad to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary. Two firsts for us: our first-ever two-week vacation, and the first time we’ve been able to sneak away for our actual anniversary.

 

When we got married in September, we weren’t thinking about football season. But with three boys who all played—one through five years of college—our fall weekends were filled for the better part of 25 years. This year, finally, it was our turn.

On this trip, I kept thinking about a couple I once worked with. They had worked hard their whole lives—raising a family, building a home, fulfilling their responsibilities. But when they finally reached retirement, they weren’t healthy enough to enjoy it. With tears in their eyes, they told me how heartbreaking it felt to fight so hard for that stage of life, only to have their health hold them back.

But the story didn’t end there. With small, consistent changes—better nutrition, strength work, lowering inflammation—they started walking, golfing, traveling, livingagain. Their desire was great, and their health rose to meet it.

That’s why I do what I do. Not just to help people lose weight or get stronger, but to help them reclaim the years they’ve worked so hard to earn.

This anniversary trip with Melissa was a reminder of that. She’s been through a lot, and truthfully, we all have. But because we’ve made our health a priority, we’re able to embrace this stage of life fully—together.

Happy anniversary, Melissa. Here’s to another 35 years of love, consistency, and living life to the fullest.
