In this episode, Joe and Richard explore the idea of blending work and life, highlighting the ability to mix business with pleasure on trips, and emphasize how midlife can be a time of reinvention rather than decline. The episode also touches on the benefits of running life "experiments" to explore new directions after major transitions like career changes or personal loss. Richard shares his thoughts on how turning 50 doesn’t mean slowing down—it’s an opportunity to live more creatively and intentionally. The hosts reflect on modern work flexibility, the value of staying physically fit, and the importance of making conscious choices about career, hobbies, and relationships to ensure a fulfilling second half of life.
