Forget the "midlife crisis." What if this stage of life is actually a second adolescence—a time of incredible transformation and potential?
On the latest Finishing Strong podcast, we're joined by gerontologist and longevity expert Barbara Waxman. We dive deep into:
🔹 Middlescence: Why ages 45-65+ are a powerful new life stage, not a decline.
🔹 Preferment: Ditching the outdated concept of "retirement" for a portfolio of what you prefer to do.
🔹 The 3 Spans of Longevity: It's not just about living longer (lifespan) or avoiding disease (health span), but the crucial third span that most people miss.
🔹 Purpose vs. Meaning: How to find your "little p purpose" and why chasing a "Big P Purpose" can be paralyzing.
Barbara gives us the research-backed framework and the empowering language to navigate this chapter with intention and joy.
