Retire Often: How anyone can take multiple career breaks to unlock adventure, advance their career, and find financial freedom

Why do we have to work for 40 years and only retire once? Why can’t we take occasional career breaks to focus on the other areas of life that matter: family, friends, adventure, rest, hobbies, our health, and achieving long-held dreams?

And what if there was a way of doing so that not only avoided financial or career downsides – but brought profound upsides?

Author Jillian Johnsrud has walked the walk – taking numerous mini retirements that have unlocked work-life balance and a more purposeful life, while also helping rather than hindering her career thanks to simple steps and practical principles that anyone can follow.

She has coached hundreds of people to achieve the same, and in Retire Often she shares everything you need to make the most of every season of life by retiring not once – but often.
