What if the secret to thriving in midlife wasn’t about hustling harder, but about staying curious, connected, and flexible? My 82-year-old dad, Bob Chilvers, joins me on the podcast to share his best midlife wisdom—advice he not only gives but actually lives by.


In this episode, we dive into:

✔️The three key pillars of staying vibrant as you age

✔️How to stop the endless cycle of yearning and actually enjoy where you are right now

✔️Why you’re never stuck—whether it’s a career, relationship, or life situation, you always have options

✔️His personal story of leaving a high-powered position at a big law firm for a life that aligned with his values

✔️Real-life ways to reduce stress, stay mentally sharp, and find joy in the everyday

 

If midlife has you feeling stuck, stressed, or just meh, this conversation is packed with practical, heartfelt wisdom that will inspire you to make the most of this chapter—on your own terms.
