Free Event for Shedders: Healthy Ageing and Thriving in Retirement

What does it really take to thrive in retirement - not just get by, but live well with purpose, connection, and energy? In this practical and engaging session, Dr John Barletta draws on decades of psychological insight and his Wellbeing Workbook to help you move from simply “hoping for a good retirement” to creating one with intention. Through simple, evidence-based ideas, you’ll explore how to build routine, maintain purpose, strengthen relationships, and develop the mindset and habits that lead to a healthy, happy, and productive life in retirement.  

Event includes free morning tea.

Supported by the Tully Men’s Shed and the Queensland Men’s Shed Association, this is a great opportunity to reflect, connect, and take practical steps toward your next chapter. All attendees will get a free PDF of John's workbook.
