Want to feel confident heading into retirement? Start by taking a step back and understanding what “living well” actually looks like for you, not just getting by, but feeling comfortable, prepared and in control. And the truth is, knowing what enough means for you can take a huge amount of stress off your shoulders.

Join host Andrew Mackinnon as he sits down with Cbus Coordinator Bob Byrne and Cbus Retirement Adviser Jonathan Harkness. Together, they break down what a comfortable retirement really costs, the simple tools that help you plan for your own lifestyle, and how your super and the Age Pension can work together to give you stability and peace of mind, no matter your balance.

Because it’s time to shift the way you think about your Super.

Do you know how much is in your Super account? It's okay if you're unsure. You're in the majority. While the idea of Superannuation can seem overwhelming, it doesn’t have to be. 

Hosted by Andrew Mackinnon, in each episode of the Cbus Super Shift Podcast, Andrew is joined by one of the many Cbus Coordinators, and an expert from the Cbus Advice Team. 

They’ll cover topics like ‘What’s enough to live well?’ ‘How to track your Super’ and ‘Planning for what you leave behind.’ 

You’ll get simple, practical steps to manage your super, and explain government initiatives and entitlements that you may very well be eligible for. 

The time is now to take action for the future you actually want. 

So, whether retirement is still a long way off or almost at your doorstep, it's time to shift the way you think about your Super.
