Episode 70: This Midlife with Ski Sullivan

February 2, 2022

Busting out of our comfort zones and opening our eyes up to possibilities takes work. And when it comes to work, we have to see the payoff before we’re willing to actually put in the time and effort. 

But there’s never been a better time for reinvention than the second half of our lives. According to today’s guest, Ski Sullivan, the key to succeeding with change is realizing that we don’t need to tackle everything at once—we just have to take small steps and follow where they lead us.

Ski is a dedicated biohacker and the mindfulness practitioner behind This Midlife. After I came across him during a Q&A session, I was so impressed with his enthusiasm that I knew I had to talk with him. In today’s episode, he talks about the idea of shaping your world to get the best possible outcome. 

We discussed:

  • The big lessons we can learn from younger generations about work
  • One major question that can be terrifying for newly retired men to hear
  • Why changing your vocabulary can make a difference in retirement
  • How the pandemic opened up people’s minds to accept different things
  • 5 key areas in life that often lead to personal “mini” epiphanies
