The Big Leap

Surfing The Leading Edge


Listen Later

Reinventing Yourself at Any Age

Lots of people go into midlife without opening up to find out what their real genius is for THIS stage of their life.

One of Gay’s mentors said, “Every Breath You Take after 50 is a choice between creativity or stagnation” and that’s what today’s episode is all about.

Mike and Gay are talking about Surfing the Leading Edge and why it’s so important when making big leaps in life.

They'll tell you about a woman named Christine Marie, who has created a program based on the Big Leap principles and her own research to help women with issues like PMS and endometriosis (something she struggled with herself, but was able to find relief through her program).

They'll also get into the challenges that people face as they get older, especially in the entertainment industry, where ageism is a real issue and share stories of actors and actresses who have overcome those challenges and found success later in life.

Mike spent a little bit of time talking about a project that's really lit him up recently. He's been co-authoring a book with his 20-year-old son, Zack. They've found a really creative way to collaborate together and Mike says it’s been a lot of fun.

This one is a really inspiring episode that Mike thinks you’re going to enjoy. Give it a listen and let him know what you think!
