    When Your Paycheck Stops At Retirement, What Replaces It?

    Retirement changes more than your daily routine—it changes where your income comes from. After decades of receiving a regular paycheck, suddenly you're responsible for creating one yourself. So when that employer paycheck stops, what replaces it? In this episode of Savvy Women, Catherine Magaña and Rachel Ivanovich discuss one of retirement's biggest financial and emotional transitions: going from saving and accumulating wealth to relying on it for income. They discuss why your income changes in retirement and how multiple sources can work together to support the life you've planned. You'll learn about: • How Social Security can become part of your retirement income • How investments, pensions, and rental income can work together • Why cash reserves can help during periods of market volatility • How taxes and withdrawal timing can impact where you take income from • Why creating a predictable monthly paycheck can provide greater peace of mind • How to prepare for larger expenses like a new car, home repairs, travel, or helping family • Why coordinating your income sources is more effective than relying too heavily on one account Your work paycheck may stop when you retire—but your need for income doesn't. The key is having a plan for what replaces it.

    You Need A Retirement Income Plan, Not A Rule!

    There's no magic number when it comes to retirement income. While rules like the 4% withdrawal rule can offer a starting point, your retirement deserves more than a one-size-fits-all formula. In this episode, Catherine Magaña and Rachel Ivanovich explain why retirement income planning requires a personalized strategy built around your lifestyle, spending needs, Social Security, pensions, investments, taxes, healthcare costs, and long-term goals. They also explore how inflation, market volatility, and sequence-of-returns risk can affect how much income your portfolio can sustainably provide. You'll discover why: Investment performance and retirement income aren't the same thing Your spending needs can change throughout retirement A retirement plan shouldn't be "one and done" Regularly revisiting your income strategy can help you adapt as life changes The goal isn't to find the perfect withdrawal rule. It's to create a flexible retirement income plan that helps you spend with confidence and live the retirement you've worked so hard to enjoy.
