Create a Meaningful Second Half of Life-Move from Ambition to Meaning

Mid-life is a time where one evaluates the satisfaction of their life thus far, while becoming increasingly aware of how short life is. A flood of energy comes, along with a choice to use this energy to their detriment, destructively, or to consciously investigate what they want the second half of life to be for them; how to create meaning and purpose; how to make a difference and leave a legacy. This presentation is a guide for this middle passage.

The audience will takeaway:
1) An understanding that the most important relationship is with oneself
2) A sense of purpose and meaning in their work and life
3) Motivation to do their best work

“Hi Diane, just a quick thank you for yesterday’s presentation!  We received lots of great feedback!  We loved how you really tied everyone into group activities and discussion.
It is such a sensitive and important subject that everyone opened up to so nicely.

2) Inspiration for others with their engaged, enthusiastic attitude towards work and life

“Diane’s presentation gave us a glimpse into the process of integrating our purpose into all the important aspects of a well-lived life – career, health, relationships, family, spirituality, and community.  What was especially notable was her ability to focus on the audience, engage them, and bring a genuine connection and awareness to them that is unusual in academic presentations. She seemed to walk among us lightly and to lift something out of us that we didn’t know was there. We are grateful for her insights and her work with us.”

I was amazed at the difference between my ideas and goals at the start and what I ended up with. The result was much deeper and broader than what I had envisioned. I started with one specific goal, and what resulted is in many ways transformational. Although my goals were achieved along the way, they turned out to be just a small part of what we accomplished.
