Supporting You in Your Desire to Change
by Michael Feeley
We’re all travelers in time’s most democratic system—aging touches everyone, yet each journey unfolds uniquely. From the first day of kindergarten to the last day before retirement, our lives are gently structured by milestones that both guide and define us. Shakespeare understood this rhythm when he wrote of life’s “Seven Ages of Man.” His poetry […]

One of the most precious legacies you can leave the world is that you were happy. “She was a happy person.” “He was a happy person.” Simple words. Profound impact. When we think about legacy, we often imagine accomplishments, wealth, or achievements—things we did. But happiness as legacy is about who we were in the […]

When did we decide that growing older meant growing smaller and backing off? You have the courage and experience to challenge the status quo about your value. You don’t need to follow outdated norms about what aging means. Instead, create change. Establish new recognition. Speak up. Reject the limiting phrase that shuts down possibility: “This […]

Ageless means never looking old or appearing to grow old, lasting a long time. When we’re young, we naturally embody this—we feel infinite, immortal, and untouched by time’s passage. Aging exists only as an abstract concept happening to other people. Then reality arrives. At 50, 60, 70+, we confront our mortality. We see it in […]

Editing is a positive process. You edit a film, a book, a blog post, or a podcast interview to make it better—clearer, more compelling, whole, and true to what you plan. The same principle applies to how you edit yourself. You can edit the way you live and work, checking and refining to create integrity—living […]

What if aging isn’t about slowing down, but about speeding up toward your true and best self with the power of identity? As a career and life coach working with clients in their “Next Act,” I’ve discovered something remarkable: the names we choose for ourselves as we mature can completely transform how we approach this […]

If you’re mature, you’ve probably heard the complaints: “It’s time for fresh blood,” “Step aside for the younger generation,” or “We need new perspectives.” The term behind this attitude is “gerontocracy”- rule by elders – and it has become a lightning rod in today’s increasingly age-obsessed culture. Gerontocracy simply means a system where older people […]

I discovered this African proverb recently, and it has moved me profoundly: “When an old person dies, a library burns to the ground.” I thought about these words for a long time, and I see them as absolutely true. They honor the immense, accumulated knowledge and life experience that exists within every older person, regardless […]
