Retirement has finally arrived and now she has time for all the shit work kept getting in the way of.

**Shit I Finally Have Time to Do: Now That I’m Retired** is a funny retirement journal for women who are ready to trade deadlines, meetings and status updates for adventures, hobbies, naps and whatever the hell they want to do next.

Equal parts guided retirement journal, adventure planner and good-riddance letter to the working years, this book helps newly retired women decompress, rediscover who they are beyond their careers and create a retirement that actually feels like theirs.

This isn’t another serious retirement-planning book filled with budgets and five-year goals. It’s a smart, funny and encouraging place to reflect on the past, make plans for the future and remember that having fun is now a perfectly legitimate use of time.

WHAT’S INSIDE

• 24 thoughtfully designed interior pages
• 17 guided writing activities and retirement prompts
• A 30-Day Work Detox
• The Exit Interview Nobody Asked For
• An official permission slip to stop being so damn productive
• Prompts for rediscovering hobbies and interests
• A “Why the Hell Not?” list
• Local adventure and bucket-list ideas
• A retirement adventure menu with different levels of chaos
• A 90-day experiment for trying something new
• Space to create an ideal week
• A letter to her future self
• Plenty of room for reflection, plans and beautifully unproductive ideas

The journal combines humor with meaningful prompts about identity after work, neglected dreams, relationships, new experiences and what she genuinely wants from this next chapter.

A GREAT RETIREMENT GIFT FOR

• A retiring coworker or boss
• A best friend, sister, wife or mom
• A newly retired teacher, nurse or office professional
• A woman retiring in her 50s, 60s or beyond
• Retirement parties, farewell celebrations and last-day-of-work gifts
• The woman who already has enough mugs and needs something she’ll actually use
• Any woman who is retired, not expired

It’s funny enough to get a laugh at the retirement party but thoughtful enough to become a meaningful keepsake. Unlike a generic retirement card or one-and-done gag gift, this journal gives her a place to imagine what comes next and permission to change her mind as often as she damn well pleases.

**PLEASE NOTE**

This journal contains adult language, honest reflection and unapologetic retirement energy. It may also lead to spontaneous trips, revived hobbies, protected nap time and a dramatic reduction in tolerance for unnecessary meetings.
