If you're in your 40s, 50s, or 60s, listen to this! In this podcast, I share 25 life lessons from people over 70 — timeless wisdom for navigating midlife, retirement planning, relationships, purpose, and happiness.

These life lessons are based on the powerful research of Dr. Karl Pillemer, author of 30 Lessons for Living, who interviewed over 1,000 older adults to uncover the most important advice they would pass on. I’ve distilled those insights into 25 practical lessons tailored especially for those of us between ages 45 and 65.

Whether you’re thinking about retirement, already retired, or simply looking to make the most of your next chapter, this episode is packed with real-world advice from those who’ve been there.
