The INNOVATIONS life planning process guides clients in a collaborative process to redesign their lives and implement changes to prepare for their future. Early planning can insure the potential for broader life options and a smoother transition into the next phase of life. Starting this process in your 40’s or 50’s is not too early, just as you would plan for the financial aspects of retirement many years ahead. However, clients can benefit from this process whether they are suddenly laid off and facing early retirement, are still in the height of their careers, or already fully retired.

Some of the areas that will be explored include:

  • Looking at my life...what’s there, what’s missing?
  • New visions and recaptured dreams
  • Second careers and options for contribution
  • Life passions and meaning
  • Overlap of financial and personal life planning
  • Health, relationship, and housing considerations
  • Life balance
  • Creating personal legacies
  • Strategies for moving to the next step

A variety of packages are available for you based on your life situation and needs. Introductory sessions help you to evaluate whether INNOVATIONS life planning services would be beneficial for you.

The Gift of Legacy
As boomers turn the corner into their 60’s, the word "legacy" takes on a new meaning. People are starting to give more serious thought to how they can "make a difference" not only for today but in ways that will last beyond their lifetimes. Commitment to the well-being of future generations can take many forms from philanthropy to transmitting of values through an ethical will or memoir, to the development of a foundation, or involvement in social action. Each is a unique expression of self.

This package is designed to help clarify values, envision and then implement a plan to impact your family, community or society in an intentional, enduring way through the creation of a personal legacy. Individually designed services may include collaboration with other professionals and assistance with research and resources. These services are a perfect complement to financial and estate planning.
