Howard Rosenberg had done what many of us were taught to do. He got an education, built a career, and provided for his family. From the outside, it checked every box.

But in his early fifties, a diagnosis of advanced heart disease and emergency quintuple bypass surgery forced him to slow down and take a hard look at the life he had built.

That wake-up call led Howard to begin asking deeper questions about identity, purpose, creativity… and what really sustains us in the second half of life.

We talked about:

• How a health wake-up call led to a complete identity shift
• Why the way we finish the sentence “I am…” matters
• The difference between external success and internal fulfillment
• How creativity extends far beyond art
• What it really means to consciously create your next chapter
