You may not have found that thing that you were truly “meant” for yet but it’s never too late to initiate the process of personal growth, and ultimately, purpose; in fact, they are integral.
You can’t discover your purpose if you don’t know yourself. In RetiremeantTM, you are equipped with life experience and time. And so you can do both.
