Building a Retirement That Keeps You Moving with Adam Schersten (Ep. 4)

Will your body be ready for the retirement you’ve been saving for?

Financial planning is only part of preparing for the years ahead. The ability to stay active, independent, and connected to the people and activities you enjoy may depend just as much on the choices you make with your health today.

In this episode, Jesse Lunin-Pack, CFP®, welcomes Adam Schersten, Certified Personal Trainer and Posture and Movement Specialist, for a conversation about the connection between physical movement and retirement planning. Together, they explore why consistency matters more than intensity, how leg strength and mobility influence long-term independence, and why simple movement habits can shape the quality of life you experience decades from now. 

They also discuss posture, fall prevention, practical mobility assessments, and simple ways to improve movement before limitations affect everyday life.

Key takeaways:

  • Why consistent movement habits often matter more than occasional intense workouts for long-term health
  • How leg strength and mobility support independence, confidence, and everyday activities throughout retirement
  • Why improving posture and movement patterns can reduce discomfort before pain becomes a daily issue

Retirement isn’t just about having enough money. It’s about having the health, energy, and relationships to enjoy the life you’ve worked so hard to build.

He explains how healthy habits, financial planning, and meaningful relationships work together to create a more fulfilling retirement.

Key takeaways:

  • Why your health deserves the same planning and long-term attention as your retirement savings
  • How small lifestyle choices today can create lasting benefits that build over the years
  • Why planning for health challenges can strengthen your overall retirement strategy
  • How focusing on healthspan helps you stay active, independent, and connected longer

Retirement Is More Than Money: Planning for Purpose, Health, and Connection (Ep. 2)

Retirement Is More Than Money: Planning for Purpose, Health, and Connection (Ep. 2)

Retirement planning often centers around savings, investments, and income, but is that enough to create a fulfilling life after work?

What happens when your career ends, your routines change, and you have decades ahead of you to fill with purpose, relationships, and meaningful experiences?

In this episode, Jesse Lunin-Pack challenges the traditional way retirement is viewed. He explains why retirement should be treated as a long life stage rather than a single date on the calendar. Jesse explores the often-overlooked questions of identity, purpose, physical health, social connection, and life design. He also shares practical ways to prepare for later years by training for the activities you want to enjoy, building meaningful relationships, and creating a retirement plan that goes far beyond financial projections.

Key takeaways:

  • Why retirement should be viewed as a 30-year life stage instead of a single milestone date
  • How losing a work identity can become one of retirement’s biggest emotional challenges
  • Why physical fitness today impacts the activities you’ll be able to enjoy later in life
  • How social connections contribute to longevity and overall quality of life in retirement
  • Why a complete retirement plan includes purpose, health, relationships, and finances
  • And more!

Retirement planning often starts with money, but is that enough to create a fulfilling next chapter?

What happens when health challenges or social isolation get in the way of the life you’ve worked so hard to build? The answer may require a broader approach to retirement preparation.

In this episode, Jesse Lunin-Pack introduces the Healthy, Wealthy, and Connected podcast and shares why retirement planning should go beyond finances alone. 

Drawing from personal experiences, client conversations, and his two decades as a financial advisor, he explores the three essential pillars of retirement: wealth, health, and meaningful relationships.

  • How health habits built years earlier can influence retirement lifestyle and independence
  • The role meaningful relationships play in creating purpose after leaving the workforce
  • Why retirement should be viewed as a beginning rather than the finish line of planning
