What Are You Actually Retiring To?
Workshop 1
A 90-minute virtual workshop for Gen Xers who are ready to design their life, not just fund it.
Most people spend 30 years planning when to retire. They track the pension, run the numbers, count down the years.
Almost nobody plans what they are retiring to.
Not the fantasy version – the beach, the travel, the freedom. The actual version. The Tuesday at 11 am version. The “I have nowhere to be, and I’m not sure how I feel about that” version.
The people who thrive in retirement are not the ones who saved the most. They are the ones who designed the life before they arrived in it. This workshop is where that work begins.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
This is not a presentation. You will leave with two things you created yourself.
THE IDENTITY AUDIT
Map everything that currently gives you a sense of self – and mark what survives retirement and what disappears. Most people have never done this. The results are confronting and clarifying in equal measure.
THE IDEAL WEEK DESIGN
Sketch a real week in your retired life – not a holiday, an actual week you would be happy to repeat. Day by day, morning to evening. The blank spots are as useful as the filled ones.
THE GAP
The space between those two outputs – that is the work. You will leave with a clear picture of what it is and why it matters.
WHO THIS IS FOR
This workshop is for you if you are a Gen Xer between 45 and 65 who:
- Is 5 to 15 years away from retirement and starting to think seriously about what comes next
- Has the financial side in some kind of order, but has not thought deeply about the life side
- Feels a low-grade anxiety about retirement that the savings account does not seem to fix
- Wants to do actual work in the session, not just listen to someone talk
This workshop is not for you if you are looking for investment advice, tax strategy, or financial planning support. This is life design work – the other half of retirement preparation that most people skip.

ABOUT YOUR FACILITATOR
| Antonia Varbanova is a Gen X Retirement Preparation Specialist and the founder of Connecting Fragments. She has lived across three continents and five countries, reinvented her career three times, and spent years observing – up close – what separates the people who thrive in retirement from the ones who drift through it. Her work is built on one foundational insight: financial preparation is necessary but not sufficient. The people who build genuinely good retirement years do the identity work, the purpose work, and the lifestyle design work before they get there – not after. The 5-Dimensional Retirement Plan workshop series exists to make that preparation structured, practical, and actually doable. |
FAQ
What platform is the workshop on?
Zoom. You will receive the link in your confirmation email. No account required – just click to join.
Do I need any special materials?
Just pen and paper, and ideally your printed workbook. We will send the workbook PDF with your confirmation email.
What if I miss a workshop I have paid for?
The 48-hour replay is available to all registered participants and is sent within an hour of the live session closing. If you purchased series access, your replay entitlement carries to every workshop in the series.
Do I have to attend all five workshops?
No. Each workshop is a standalone session. You can register for one or all five. That said, the five dimensions are interconnected – the full series produces a more complete picture than any single workshop on its own.
Is this a sales pitch for a bigger program?
No. The workshop is a standalone session with real, practical value regardless of what you do next. There is a brief, honest mention of the Gen X Retirement Protocol at the close – because it is the natural next step for people who want to go deeper – but there is no pressure and no pitch.
