What is silver minds

The third phase of life is a time of transformation, growth, and  renewal. Whether it begins with the end of career, the empty nest, or a personal transformation, it’s a stage where deeper internal changes open doors to new  possibilities, passions, and purpose. 

At Silver Minds, we believe this phase is a vibrant new beginning – an opportunity to reimagine, reinvent, and craft a fulfilling future on your terms.

What We Do

An Opportunity for Self-discovery, Growth and Renewal.

We help people to rethink the third phase of life. Our Programs are designed for those in this exciting chapter – individuals seeking clarity, direction, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Over five key areas, with carefully curated content, whether in group or personalized formats, participants engage in inspiring
reflections, practical exercises, and meaningful connections.

You’ll develop a personalized roadmap – an actionable plan filled with concrete steps to turn your vision into reality.

What People Say

Every Day Is a Chance to Reimagine.
Here’s what people are saying about us…

“Participating in Silver Mind’s session helped me become aware of how much life has to be lived. Retirement, after all, is just the beginning of a new future that is in our hands. My thanks to the entire team.”

Margarida (67 years)

“Insightful and thought provoking sessions. I highly recommend signing up if you are wondering how to approach retirement. The sessions are well structured, reflective and pragmatic. I learned a lot about myself and feel much better prepared for my next chapter!”

John (58 years)

“This day made me reflect that this third phase of life, if prepared and planned in advance, considering all factors, can be a peaceful, pleasurable and happy phase. It made me realize that in the Portuguese society, we don’t prepare enough for this phase. It made me think that, currently, our lives are too much centered around economic factors and money and for me this is not the path I want to follow. It really made me deeply reflect.

Joana (47 years)

“I was lucky enough to attend a Silver Minds workshop in March 2025. It was an enriching experience that made me aware of the many facets (and challenges) that face those who, like me, are approaching 60. Through an extremely sensitive and comprehensive approach, Alexandra, Cristina and Sara open up concrete avenues for reflection and encourage fruitful dialogue among the group members. A truly inspiring day!

Rafael  (57 years)

“Participating in the workshop, made me rethink my future as a retiree in a more conscious and open way. Sharing ideas, expectations and experiences with the other participants was especially inspiring. I left with new thoughts and a desire to prepare for this new phase of life with more ease, but also with more intention. Congratulations on the initiative!”

Conceição (60 years)

“The session was mainly about preparing for retirement, and even though I am already retired, the day was really different. The topics covered were adapted to both situations. I was able to evaluate what I did well and not so well in preparing for my retirement and also evaluate what I do well and not so well now in my day-to-day life. I came out of the sessions with ideas to change some things and I am trying to put them into practice. The facilitators are TOP! It was a very useful day for me.”

José Eduardo (70 years)

From the workshop I participated in,, I liked the perspective that retirement is not the end but can and should be the beginning of something different.”

Maria João (58 years)

FAQs

Do you have questions?

What do we do?

We empower people embracing the third phase of life as a time of growth, purpose, and connection. Through our programs, we help you reimagine what’s possible — and turn your next chapter into your best one.

How does the process work?

It all begins with a discovery phase — a safe space where you can reflect, ask questions, and clarify what truly matters to you. From there, we’ll support you in shaping your vision, navigating changes, and exploring what this new chapter could look like.

You’ll take part in practical, engaging activities designed to spark insights and bring your ideas to life. Whether you join us online or in person, each session builds toward something deeply personal: a clear, inspiring plan that reflects what you want today — and where you hope to go next.

Who benefits from our programs?

Anyone approaching, transitioning into, or already in the third phase of life. Whether you’re feeling stuck, excited, uncertain, or searching for renewed purpose, this process meets you where you are.

Do I need to have a plan already?

Not at all. Some people come with a blank slate, others with a plan that needs tweaking. Either way, we’ll explore it together and co-create something meaningful.

I think I have a good plan, should I participate in one of your programs?

If you’re in a positive place with your plans, that’s great news! The individual program (adhoc individual sessions) might help you focus on the areas you could better prioritize Talking through your ideas can revitalise your motivation and kick start the exploration!

You may find it helpful to book an ad hoc 60 or 90-minutes call to explore one or two areas identified in your plan that need further consideration and action. These could be specific self-awareness activities (such as strengths profiling, understanding your values and motivators), or plan your strategy for different options.

How should I choose the right program for me?

Some clients prefer individual sessions for personalized focus, while others enjoy the connection and shared insights of group programs.

And you’re not locked into just one path — many clients combine options or join different programs as their needs evolve. It’s all about finding what resonates with you, right now.

Do the programs cover financial topics?

While we discuss how your life goals connect to your financial reality, we don’t offer financial advice.

What if I don’t know what I want yet?

Perfect. That’s where we begin.

You’ll take part in practical, engaging activities designed to spark insights and bring your ideas to life. Whether you join us online or in person, each session builds toward something deeply personal: a clear, inspiring plan that reflects what you want today — and where you hope to go next.
