Finding joy and repurposing yourself in midlife and beyond, with Chip Conley

Episode #24

Join us for Episode 11 of The Aging Project Podcast to meet Chip Conley, a man who’s going to get you thinking about what you want for your life, and how you’re going to make it happen. At just 26, Chip started a business that became the second largest boutique hotel brand in America. At 47, he died nine times. Yes – you read that correctly! It was the wake-up call he needed to make some big changes in his life, and now, after helping build Airbnb into the biggest hospitality brand in the world, he’s shifted his focus to helping people in midlife and beyond find their purpose, and step confidently into the next stage with joy and meaning. Chip’s latest project, Modern Elder Academy, is on a mission to change the way we approach aging, and we’re so excited to have him on the podcast to share his wisdom with us!

Join Shelley for episode #11 of Season Two of The Aging Project Podcast, as she chats to Chip
about:

● Why we need to reframe the way we think about midlife, and start getting excited about the opportunities it presents

● Why repurposing ourselves in midlife is so important for our happiness

● His thoughts on what ‘purpose’ means, and why it’s something we have to define and find for ourselves

● The questions to ask to begin the process of finding a new purpose or direction

● The three things people fifty and over need more than anything else to age well

● His personal wellness routine

● His advice for what we can all do right now to kickstart the next exciting stage of our lives
