- Focusing on Wellness for a Great Midlife (with Dave Conley)Dave Conley, author of the upcoming book, “Muberty: The Guide for Going from Midlife Crisis to Kickass Midlife”, is not a doctor, but he has taken control of his health as a key step to his amazing midlife. Midlife is the time when our choices from the past 20 or so years catch up with our health. And it’s the time when what we do now will determine our quality of life beyond midlife.Dave shares what he has learned from his own experience as well as from others. We discuss:* Approaching midlife as a distinct life stage* Our shifting health in midlife* Knowing yourself and avoiding the one size fits all fitness and diet fads* Simple things you can do that make a significant difference to your healthI really appreciate both the simple practicality of Dave’s approach as well as the focus on finding what works for you now, recognizing that what works for others or even what worked for ourselves in the past, may not work for us today.Ready to play bigger and create an amazing midlife?

- Pursuing Your Dreams in Midlife (with James Burbage)“If I don’t at least try with everything I have for the rest of my life, I’m going to die with unrealized dreams and goals. And that would break my heart.” ~ James BurbageSometimes when we get to midlife, we discover the life we’ve created isn’t the life we feel destined to live. Some gut it out, counting the days until retirement. Some make the leap. And some are pushed…James Burbage was very successful in his career, but it didn’t bring him joy or happiness. He had always wanted a different path, but might never have made a change if life hadn’t forced his hand. His successful business collapsed, and his 20-year marriage ended. Unwilling to die with unrealized dreams and goals, those setbacks gave him the courage to set his sights on a different life path.Get ready, because James is redefining what’s possible in his life and wants to inspire you to create the life you’ve been wanting. We talk about mindset, failure, persistence, refusing to lose, and out working and out hustling everything between you and your dreams.Ready to play bigger and create an amazing midlife?

- Changing Your Mindset and Upping Your Mental Game (with Laurie Meschishnick)So often, what holds us back is not skill or talent, but mindset. Our mindset determines how well we are able to develop and use our talents and how much of our potential we can achieve.

Not only is she is an 8x qualifier for the CrossFit Games and a CrossFit medalist, she is also a Mindset Coach who helps people up their mental game and open their minds to their inherent potential.She humbly shares a bit about her CrossFit accomplishments but that really just frames the conversation about how she changed her mindset and mental game to become a champion in midlife. We also cover:* Comparing yourself to others and the “not enough syndrome”.* The problem with focusing on the “how” of your goals.* Aligning your rational and subconscious minds.* The power of identity.* And a whole lot more.You can connect with Laurie on Instagram at @OnPointWithLaurie or her website: OnPointCoaching.caThank you for listening – we now have listeners in 39 countries – and continue to grow, primarily from word of mouth.

About Midlife Mastery

Inspiration and information for creating an amazing second half of life: There is an abundance of information on creating a great life for those in their 20s, 30s, and even 40s, but truly little for…
those 50 and beyond. The media seems to think we should either be chasing our past glory days by clinging to youth with a white knuckle death grip OR just quietly fading into the background and letting life pass by. Yet, this time of life brings an amazing opportunity to combine our wisdom and experience with our passion and enthusiasm and refine, redefine, and reinvent who we want to be and how we want to live.
