Show Notes

Market swings are a fact of life — but they don’t have to derail your retirement dreams. In this episode of Take Pride in Retirement, host and fiduciary financial advisor Matt McClure dives into strategies to help you protect your portfolio, safeguard your income, and keep your cool during turbulent markets.

From the emotional side of investing to the practical tools — like diversification, guaranteed income streams, and rebalancing — Matt explains how LGBTQ+ retirees and those nearing retirement can build confidence no matter what Wall Street is doing. You’ll also learn about the often-overlooked “sequence of returns” risk, how to avoid costly emotional mistakes, and why a personalized written plan can make all the difference.

Whether you’re five years away from retirement or already enjoying it, this episode will help you prepare, adapt, and thrive through market volatility.
