Midlife is a time when things start to shift and change. Any moment of change brings an opportunity for reinvention and revitalization. What do you truly want out of your career and your life?

This is what I have been exploring lately. 

A few episodes ago, I discussed the making of the modern elder along with the book Wisdom at Work by Chip Conely. Chip is also the founder of the Modern Elder Academy (MEA), a program I have been going through myself. 

MEA is on a mission to reframe midlife from a crisis to a calling. Its purpose is to help you find a renewed sense of purpose. MEA was founded as a social enterprise dedicated to offering people a place and the tools to navigate midlife and emerge refreshed, inspired, and better equipped to flourish in their next chapter. 

In this episode, I discuss my experiences in the Modern Elder Academy. 

We'll dive deeper into these concepts:

• What MEA entails.
• How my experience in MEA has been thus far.
• The many transitions we go through in midlife.
• Simple mindfulness techniques I’ve learned in MEA.
• What appreciative inquiry is.
• Why we need to shift our mindset about aging.

Now, for some action steps:
