Learning to Love Midlife: 12 Reasons Why Life Gets Better with Age with Dorian Mintzer and Chip Conley
It is time to reframe how we think about midlife, the transition period of life between young adulthood and old age, as not a "crisis" but a chrysalis - where a profound transformation happens. In his book, Learning to Love Midlife: 12 Reasons Why Life Gets Better with Age, Chip Conley offers an alternative narrative to the way we commonly think of our 40s and beyond, and reminds us that life begins at 50 with the best of our days still ahead of us.
He began exploring the physical, emotional, mental, vocational, and spiritual transitions that happen in our 40s, 50s, and 60s with a desire to share his learning freely. People are living longer than ever before, and because of this midlife becomes even more of an important time in our life. This life stage opens the door to embracing new perspectives and ways of thinking that have the potential to change our lives.
In this program, you'll discover how to:
- Prevent anticipation of your future regret as a form of wisdom that you can embrace any time in your life
- Grow comfortable in your own skin
- Redefine what a successful life looks like
- Let go of our emotional baggage, mindsets, and obligations that no longer serve us as a part of the "Great Midlife Exit"
- Feel a part of something bigger than ourselves and growing whole
About Chip Conley:
Chip Conley is on a midlife mission. After disrupting the hospitality industry twice, first as the founder of Joie de Vivre Hospitality, the second-largest operator of boutique hotels in the U.S., and then as Airbnb's Head of Global Hospitality and Strategy, leading a worldwide revolution in travel, Conley co-founded MEA (Modern Elder Academy) in January 2018 in Baja California, Mexico. Inspired by his experience of intergenerational mentoring as a "modern elder" at Airbnb, where his guidance was instrumental to the company's extraordinary transformation from fast-growing start-up to the world's most valuable hospitality brand, MEA is the world's first "midlife wisdom school" and has a campus opening on a 2,600-acre regenerative horse ranch in Santa Fe, New Mexico in April 2024.
Dedicated to reframing the concept of aging, MEA supports students to navigate midlife with a renewed sense of purpose and possibility. A New York Times bestselling author, Conley's seventh book, Learning to Love Midlife: 12 Reasons Why Life Gets Better with Age, is about rebranding midlife to help people understand the upside of this often-misunderstood life stage.
