Redefining Retirement: Joy, Purpose, & New Possibilities with Dr. Harry Agress, Jr.
What if retirement isn’t the end, but the beginning of your most meaningful chapter? In this inspiring episode, Jacqui Clark welcomes Dr. Harry Agress, Jr.—physician, photographer, author, and reinvention enthusiast—to explore how retirement can be a launching pad for creativity, curiosity, and connection. Harry shares the deeply personal story behind his book Next Years, Best Years, and how simple lists of fears, loves, and curiosities led him to improv classes, children’s book illustration, and even background acting in TV shows. Together, they unpack his framework of Purpose, Passion, and Possibility and the “Four Freedoms” that make this life phase so unique.
From turning hobbies into joy (not jobs) to embracing curiosity as a compass, this conversation offers a roadmap to vibrant, self-defined living after 60. Whether you're newly retired or just planning ahead, this episode is your reminder: you’re not winding down—you’re just getting started.
