Bio for Introductions

Jacquie Doucette knows what it’s like to have retirement not work out for you. She retired once and ended up back in the full-time working world within a couple of years. But that doesn’t mean she failed! Each day brings new experiences and new knowledge about what life is really all about. The second time around, she got it right and now she’s helping others figure out life Beyond Retirement.

She’s done “all the things”: she went to school, found a good job, got married, had kids, worked her way up the ladder a few rungs. But along the way, she learned that there is more to life than ticking off those boxes. She wants to help others learn from her experience, so they don’t make the same mistakes she made.

Usual bio info:

  • B.Eng in Fuels & Materials Engineering
  • B.Sc in Pharmacy
  • served in Canadian Armed Forces for over 20 yrs
  • employed by Canadian Department of National Defence for 20+ yrs
  • married with 2 adult daughters
