Gary Gilberg

I help successful professionals create the unique balance of creativity, purpose and play that makes the last third of your life so rich and meaningful. Whether it's becoming a regional director for the Red Cross, a world class artist, the business manager for your church or just being a great grandparent, my clients have done all of the above after they retired.  

If you are a small business owner who's getting burned out, you've probably already hired a retirement  financial planner, but finances are only one piece of the retirement puzzle.  I can help you develop your exit strategy to make a successful transition into retirement.

I'm certified by both the International Coaching Federation and the Retirement Coaches Association. 



What do you want to do with the rest of your life?


What Clients Say:

In the last 6 months Gary has helped me through a dozen tough business decisions. We unravel the complex issues involved so I can make logical decisions and not get derailed by my emotions. He understands what it takes to run a business  in your sixties and still enjoy your life.

Retirement Coaching


Retirement can be a time of great vitality, creativity and much deserved relaxation, but it also has many challenges. Retirement is the tenth most stressful event in life. My goal is to give you the insight, tools and techniques to achieve a balanced, fun and fulfilling retirement that fits you like a glove.

Find your WHY


What's your WHY? Everyone has their own answer. Your WHY is a place where your imagination runs wild. It's where you can get lost for hours without noticing that the sun has set and your lunch sits uneaten. It’s the reason you were put on this earth. How do I know? Because I found my WHY at age 64 as a coach. 

  “God put me on earth to accomplish certain things. Right now, I’m so far behind, I’ll never die.” Calvin (Bill Watterson)
