Still Needed: Finding Balance

Still Needed: Finding Balance

By Martin Stow

Retirement brings freedom.

But it also brings change.

At this stage of life, many men find themselves adjusting—quietly—trying to find a new sense of balance.

Between activity and rest.

Between independence and connection.

Between what once was… and what is still possible.

Written by Martin Stow at the age of 73, this honest and practical book explores what it means to live well with change, energy shifts, and life’s natural limitations.

Inside this book, you’ll discover:

• Why life can feel out of balance after retirement

• How to adjust to changes in energy and ability

• Ways to create simple structure in everyday life

• How to focus on what truly matters

• Finding balance between helping others and caring for yourself

• A calm and practical approach to living well moving forward

This is not a book about doing more.

It’s about doing what matters—at your own pace.

Because while life may change…

I may not be able to do everything I once did…

but I can still do something that matters.

Still Needed: Finding Balance is the third book in the Still Needed series—a collection of thoughtful, practical guides for men navigating retirement, connection, and life’s next chapter.

From the author of the Caring and Sharing collection, this series continues to explore purpose, connection, and the simple ways we can still make a difference.
