New Book Explores the Retirement Transition
ATLANTA, GA (PRWEB) September 27, 2005
When retired Atlanta businesswomen Wicke Chambers and Cheryl Stephenson couldnÂt find a book to help them through the lifestyle issues they faced in their retirement transition, they wrote the book themselves. Published by Winslow Press  Celebrate Retirement, the Freedom and the Frustrations  is a 151-page softcover workbook for retirees, employees approaching retirement, and their spouses, friends and family. It can be purchased on the web at http://www.CelebrateRetirement.com.
ÂBy retirement, most people have their finances in order. ItÂs the lifestyle issues that they trip over, according to Chambers, retired entrepreneur and co-author of the book. ÂMany retirees, and their spouses, suffer in silence over losing their identity, figuring out how to fill their time, finding meaningful activities, and adjusting to either full-time matrimony or a full-time single life.Â
Chambers and co-author Stephenson, who retired early after years of corporate life, discovered this through personal experience and through talking with other retired executives who participated in five years of ÂReinventing Retirement classes the authors taught at the Emory University Academy for Retired Professionals.
This book is unique because it was written by retirees for retirees Âproviding an honest, open, authentic voice for the retirement transition. Celebrate Retirement, the Freedom and the Frustrations, not only shines a light into the nooks and crannies of retirement, it contains 25 exercises to help readers work through the transition.

Great post! I?m just starting out in community management/marketing media and trying to learn how to do it well – resources like this article are incredibly helpful. As our company is based in the US, it?s all a bit new to us. The example above is something that I worry about as well, how to show your own genuine enthusiasm and share the fact that your product is useful in that case
