Welcome to Your Third Age: Talking About Retirement and What's Next with Nanette Fairley | Ep 32

Welcome to Season 3 where I’ll be speaking to women in the travel industry who are having an impact on the travel industry and helping others live their best lives. We’ll be covering corporate runaway stories, remote work tips, grief and travel, planning for retirement, solo female travel, moving abroad, building generational income, and much more!

In this episode I speak to Nanette Fairley who I met in 2019 at the Digital Nomad Girls Retreat. She has gone on to co-found WhatNextology which is a diverse community of inspiring individuals who are getting ready to or have already retired. Listen in as we cover moving into your Third Age.

About Nanette

Nanette's plans for her Third Age which involves travelling in slo-mo around the globe, are currently on hold with the current health crises. However, she has been SO lucky to be spending COVID non-travel time in Australia with her family, something, as an expat, she has not done in 28+ years.

A business psychologist by training, Nanette has more than thirty years’ experience in the corporate world, primarily in management consulting and the aviation industry. Her role has varied from culture and change projects to supporting individuals make the most of their talents and careers through leadership development, talent management, and developmental assessment.

Since leaving full-time employment Nanette founded WhatNextology, a resource for those wanting to make the most of their life after full-time work and family commitments. WhatNextology provides community,  support, ideas and inspiration for those planning their what's next in their Third Age.

As well as working in large corporate roles, Nanette set up a bricks and mortar business in 1998 which was acquired in 2018 by a dynamic US corporate with global expansion plans.
