As the economy shifts, the idea of a full-time retirement is changing, especially among Millennials. In fact, a growing group of Canadians are thinking of adopting a backup plan. It’s called ‘micro-retirement’.

Would you hit the Reset button, ‘retire’ for a little while, and start fresh? And if you say ‘Yes’, what tips and tricks should you know before taking that leap of faith? Sumana Jeddy, a Calgary-based work wellness consultant, offers her two cents.
