Let’s reimagine your 3rd Third of life…together.
Create your MEaningful MEtirement™!
Go beyond financial readiness to create the life readiness you need for a 3rdTHIRD filled with joy, fulfillment and freedom.
Ceci Zak’s mission:
To help people in the 3rd Third of life find the clarity, energy, guidance, and space to create what joy, fulfillment, and joy can truly look like - a MEaningful MEtirement.
What is MEaningful MEtirement™?
Retirement has traditionally focused on whether we have enough money to stop working. But financial readiness is only part of the equation.
MEaningful MEtirement is about Life Readiness! Consciously preparing for and creating who you want to be, how you want to live and what you want your next chapter to mean.
The Foundation of Your MEaningful MEtirement.
Ceci’s research identified 5 Zones of Influence - the 5Ps that shape Life Readiness: Personal, Psychological, Physical, Purpose and Place - a proven framework for planning your best life.
Are you…
Stuck trying to figure out what your 3rd Third should look like?
Struggling to find balance after a disruptive Lifequake?
Seeking a life partner? Or do you have a life partner but find your relationship is strained?
Feeling lost after becoming an empty nester? Struggling to figure out what to do with your time and space?
Wishing for a like-minded community, people who understand where you are right now in life?
Dealing with the stress of becoming a caregiver or feeling blindsided by health issues of your own?
Living with fear of the future?
Wondering about spiritual awareness and where it fits in your life?
Seeking your physical environment - fostering community connection, and inner well being?
Questioning what happened to your inner circle of friends throughout the years?
Ready to live your life’s purpose and feel energized and rejuvenated?
In the right place to create your MEaningful MEtirement™? YES!
Your 3rdTHIRD isn’t something that simply happens to you. It’s something you can consciously design.
I’m Ceci Zak, Life Readiness Strategist, Podcaster & Creator of the MEaningful MEtirement™ approach.
I’m a self proclaimed Modern Elder Pathfinder, a certified Transitions Coach, strategist, professor, writer, podcaster, speaker and ski instructor with decades of experience across corporate and non profit leadership, media, and coaching. Much more than a “retirement coach” - I’m an architect of life’s transitions, dreams and goals, working in service of those who seek to live their best lives in their 3rd Third.
I often think about my parents - how I wish they had seen the later chapter of their lives, as rich with possibility, expansion, and purpose, rather than a “winding down,” a quiet fading. I help people in their 3rd Third of life embrace possibility, expansion, and purpose rather than seeing these years as a “winding down.”
My calling is to help others intentionally design this stage of life with courage, curiosity, and clarity -- envisioning extraordinary outcomes and navigating challenges with freedom and success, rather than uncertainty and fear - a truly MEaningful MEtirement.
I’ve been training my whole life to help you!
Relatable
solutions that are meaningful and actionable…
“The 5Ps were developed through a research-based approach, creating simple, relatable solutions that are meaningful and actionable, allowing people to enhance their quality of life in the 3rd Third. Ceci has truly transitioned into a Modern Elder Pathfinder focused on bringing joy, fulfillment and freedom to the world.”
