Ready or Not: The Gen X Retirement Reality Check
The oldest Gen Xers turn 60 this year and many are realizing “retirement” doesn’t look anything like what we were promised. But it’s not too late to design what comes next with confidence, money smarts, and meaning.
Join personal finance expert Kerry Hannon and encore career advocate Marci Alboher for a candid, practical conversation about how to prepare for this next phase without panic or perfectionism.
They’ll get into what actually works:
- Smart financial moves to make now, not someday
- Second acts, third acts, and the rise of phased retirement
- How intergenerational partnerships can keep you relevant and inspired
- Kerry’s three-part “fitness plan” for a rewarding next chapter—financial, physical, and spiritual
No scare tactics. Just straight talk for a generation that’s rewriting the rules – again.

Ride Smart, Stay Healthy: A Midlife Road Map for Cyclists 40+
April 22, 2026
11:00 AM PT
02:00 PM ET
A lot of what we’ve been told about cycling and aging – what’s safe, what’s smart, what’s possible after 40 – is overdue for an update.
Host Derek Gehl brings together two of the most compelling voices on midlife cycling: Phil Cavell, co-founder of Cyclefit London and author of The Midlife Cyclist, and Gerardo Capiel, former Google executive turned cycling guide and founder of Vine Trail Adventures in Napa Valley. Between them, they’ve got the biomechanics, the lived experience, and enough to bust a few myths along the way.
Whether you’re a serious rider, thinking about getting back on the bike, or just bought an e-bike and aren’t sure where to start — this one’s for you.
