Your Thrive Compass:
A Simple Map for Retirement Joy
The Thrive Compass maps the six key pathways that shape well-being.
Each pathway highlights an area that contributes to a thriving life—spiritual, mental, social, emotional, physical, and financial. Together, they form a full picture of well-being.
Before you move on, take a moment to pause.
Look at the Compass and notice which areas feel strong and which might be asking for attention. There’s no judgment here — just awareness.

Turning Your Insights into Actions
Here are a few “Quick Remedies” you can try right now — one for each pathway of the Thrive Compass.
Spiritual : When purpose feels dim, do one thing that reconnects you to awe — watch the sunrise, listen to music that stirs you, or revisit what once lit you up.
Mental : Read or listen to something outside your usual lane — novelty rewires attention and keeps your mind flexible.
Emotional : Name one emotion you’re feeling and one thing that’s still going right — this pairing recenters the nervous system.
Social : Reach out to one person you miss or admire; a 10-minute chat can restore belonging faster than any social feed.
Physical : Step outside, stretch, or take a brisk five-minute walk. Motion resets mood and metabolism instantly.
Financial : Review one recurring expense and ask, “Does this add real value?” Small intentional choices build lasting confidence.
