Why are we 'doing it together'?
This program is being run ‘synchronously’ which means we all do it together, working through the program of content week-by-week, over a six week period. I think this makes the course easier to digest, and much more entertaining - which, let’s face it, is important when we’re talking about money, planning and the life ahead.
The pre-recorded content and associated workbook for the week drops on a Monday morning. Once per week we will be hosting live Q&A sessions with our really special guests who can help to bring the whole course to life for you.

Sarah T.
It has been Epic! The course has provided me with a great starting block to begin planning for my Epic Retirement. The modules were well presented with a gradual inclusion of information making it easy to gain and build upon knowledge. I have already recommended the course and your book to friends and strangers alike. I also love reading your newsletters and listening to the podcasts.

Tom G.
Great course. Great content. I found it very helpful to think about the various facets of retirement that have been raised.
Mark M.
Completing this course was very useful to help guide me (and partner) through discussions we had perhaps skirted around before and focused me on topics I was avoiding. Helped us to be a LOT more prepared when going to a financial advisor for personal advice
Lyn G.
Excellent course! Recommended to me by a friend for which I am very grateful. I have already embarked on my retirement journey so only regret is that I didn't know about this sooner. I am sure that it will help me to have an 'epic retirement'. :)

Sally S.
At the start of this course and with not much super I had little confidence for our epic retirement. But now having gone through the financial lessons and already had 1 financial planner meeting am now feeling confident that even with our amount of super we can still make it EPIC.
Penny S.
This course has been absolutely amazing I have learned so much. I now know what I need to put in place for the future. I feel very excited for my Epic Retirement years ahead.
