Many people approaching retirement feel unprepared or unsure whether their investments are positioned appropriately for this stage of life. ➡️ Before refining your strategy, it helps to revisit three core factors: your goals, your time horizon and your risk tolerance. Together, they can reveal whether your current allocation still supports what you need in the years ahead. If you’re wondering whether you’re on track, let’s talk. We can review your investing strategy together and build a financial plan that supports you now—and throughout retirement. See thrivent.com/social for important disclosures.

Yesterday I was sitting at a red light when an accident came across the intersection and into me. Two other drivers were taken to the hospital, and I was able to walk away. 😵‍💫 It was a powerful reminder of how quickly life can change—and how much there is to be grateful for. Hug your people a little tighter, say the prayers, and never take a single day for granted. Here’s to stepping into the new year with gratitude, perspective, and a whole lot of grace. ✨ #ImReallyThankful #NewYearPerspective #GratefulHeart #LifeIsPrecious #CountYourBlessings #WalkedAway #ThankfulToday #FreshStart #FaithOverFear #Perspective #NewYearGratitude For disclosure information, see thrivent.com/social.
