Everyone has a dream. But sometimes there’s a gap between where we are and where we want to be. True, there are some people who can bridge that gap easily, on their own, but all of us need a little help at some point. A little boost. An accountability partner. A Snooze Squad. In each episode, the Snooze Squad will strategize an action plan for people to face their fears.

If you want to retire well in 2026, you don't need a ten-year spreadsheet, a suitcase full of pensions, or a perfectly colour-coded life plan. You need five human foundations: clarity around your money, health that actually supports your freedom, purpose that wakes you up in the morning, people you want in your corner, and the courage to take action.
In this episode, I strip away the fluff and break down what actually moves the needle... the things your future self will thank you for getting right now, not "one day."
What You'll LearnWhy your "vibes-based" retirement plan needs to become a real plan
How financial clarity — not wealth — creates confidence and choice
Why health is the core engine of your next chapter (not a side quest)
How to explore purpose without pretending golf is a personality
The huge role relationships play in your retirement experience
Why courage — not spreadsheets — is the final unlock
1️⃣ The Money Plan (not the one in your head) You don't retire on vibes — you retire on numbers, clarity, and confidence. Know what you've got, how it's structured, and what it can actually do.
2️⃣ Your Health (so you can enjoy the freedom you've worked for) No point having time and money if you're exhausted, aching, or stuck on the sofa. Small, consistent actions → big retirement quality.
3️⃣ Purpose (you need something to wake up for) Work gave you identity, rhythm, and direction. Retirement requires you to create it — not wait for it to appear.
4️⃣ Relationships (your real retirement portfolio) Remove work, and the room gets quiet fast. Build connection intentionally: tribes, friendships, laughter, people who energise you.
5️⃣ Courage (the part no one likes to talk about) Fear keeps people in holding patterns: waiting for "readiness," waiting for a sign. Confidence doesn't precede action — it comes from it.
Challenge of the Week👉 Pick one of the five pillars and make a visible move.
Book the financial planning call
Start a consistent walk routine
Try a new hobby or project you've always avoided
Message someone you miss and reconnect
Commit to one brave retirement decision you've been postponing
Don't wait for certainty. Do the human thing that moves life forward.
