For many individuals, transitioning from a steady paycheck to relying on retirement income—or as we like to call it, Your Walkaway Passport® Income—is more than a financial shift. It’s a deeply personal experience.
Even clients with substantial wealth can face uncertainty as they step into this next chapter. They’ve spent decades in accumulation mode—saving, investing, preparing. But when it’s time to start living off what they’ve built, doubt can creep in.
Will it be enough?
What if something unexpected happens?
Can I really enjoy this, or should I keep holding back?
These are questions that can weigh heavily on your clients, no matter how well-funded their financial plan may be. This is where your partnership as a trusted advisor becomes essential.
Building the Income Mindset
Developing an income mindset is about more than shifting accounts from growth to distribution. It’s about helping clients reframe their beliefs around spending, security, and success.
Some clients may struggle with a scarcity mentality, hesitating to touch the wealth they’ve built—even when it’s exactly what it’s there for. Others may simply feel overwhelmed by the transition from earning to withdrawing. While still others may find themselves spending more than suitable.
As an advisor, your role is to bridge the emotional and the practical. You’re not just helping them build a retirement income strategy—you’re helping them feel confident stepping into a new phase of life. One where they can not only sustain their lifestyle, but truly enjoy what they’ve worked so hard to build.
