The word most associated with midlife is crisis, but this week I suggest a new word – chrysalis. I delve into the challenges and opportunities of midlife and how we can see our middle years as something more than a crisis to navigate. I speak about the ‘U-Curve of Happiness,’ make the case for pro-aging and how mid-life gives us an opportunity to explore an encore career, a chance to harness our experience and align our profession with our passions.
September is the new January for goal-setting
I’ve always loved the idea of starting afresh at this time of year. It must be the residue of that back to school mindset. However, rather than the term ‘goal-setting,’ I tend to use ‘intention setting’, ‘commitments’, and ‘promises’, richer, more meaningful words.
