Pat Flynn interviews Derek Coburn, the author of "Let's Retire Retirement," about rethinking the traditional approach to retirement. Coburn challenges the conventional wisdom of saving aggressively for retirement at 65, arguing that many people find retirement unfulfilling and miss the contribution and connection of work.

The discussion covers strategies for incorporating work into later life, the importance of purpose, and investing in oneself and relationships.
