Is Alone the New Free in Retirement?

People dream about retirement freedom — no more alarms, meetings, or work schedules. But something many people don’t talk about is that freedom can also mean spending more time alone. For some retirees, that quiet feels uncomfortable. For others, it becomes one of the best parts of retirement. In this video, I share my own experience. After being divorced for over 30 years, I had already learned how to live independently long before retirement arrived. So the quieter days didn’t feel shocking — they actually felt peaceful. That doesn’t mean companionship isn’t missed sometimes. But retirement freedom looks different for everyone, and learning to enjoy your own company can make a big difference in how retirement feels. If you’re retired, planning retirement, or wondering what life really feels like after leaving work, I hope this honest conversation helps. I’d love to hear your experience. Do you enjoy the quiet in retirement, or has it been harder than you expected? Let me know in the comments.
