The story behind Life Minus Work
Watching the sun rise over the Indian Ocean, Kirk Pleasant began thinking about his final flight. After forty five years of flying, what would life look like when there was no next flight on the roster?
Life Minus Work grew from that question, his wife Aurelia’s experience and conversations with people finding their own way after work. Read a short introduction to the book, with space to think about what you want from your next chapter.
Read a first lookA short read with three questions to make your own. No sign up needed to read.
You have earned more than free time.
You have earned mornings with purpose, conversations that matter, new places to explore, skills to learn, people to meet and experiences that make life feel full again.
Life Minus Work helps turn that possibility into a pathway.
“I thought I was simply stepping away from work. What I found was the space to become curious again - new people, new routines and a life that feels wide open.”
Margaret“The best part wasn’t having more time. It was discovering what to do with it - coffee groups, photography walks and people who were ready for the same kind of chapter.”
David“Life Minus Work made the next stage feel exciting, not uncertain. It gave me a simple place to start.”
HelenPress play to hear what life after full-time work can open up.

“I stopped thinking of this as retirement and started thinking of it as my next adventure.”
