The future we create for ourselves is in our capable hands, we are here to build our happiness as we age gracefully, purposefully and joyfully…

In this podcast episode, we enjoyed interviewing Chip Conley, a highly successful entrepreneur, author, and speaker. Chip is best known for his work as Modern Elder Academy's (MEA) founder. This unique midlife wisdom school aims to redefine aging and unlock potential in individuals during their "Second Prime."
With over 30 years of experience in entrepreneurship and hospitality, Chip has a wealth of knowledge and insights to share. He started his career by creating the boutique hotel chain Joie de Vivre Hospitality at age 26, which grew into a portfolio of over 50 properties globally. After selling the company in 2010, he became an Airbnb advisor and head of global hospitality and strategy.
However, Chip struggled to discover purpose and direction as he entered his midlife years. This led him to embark on a journey of self-discovery and eventually to create the MEA. Through his own personal experiences and research, Chip realized that there was a lack of resources and support for individuals in their midlife years who were seeking personal growth and fulfillment.
The Modern Elder Academy was born out of this need to help people navigate their Second Prime with a sense of purpose and meaning. MEA offers a range of programs and experiences focused on personal growth, well-being, and wisdom designed explicitly for midlife. Through workshops, retreats, coaching, and community building, MEA empowers individuals to make the most out of their midlife years and beyond.
In addition to his work with MEA, Chip is the author of several highly acclaimed books, including "Wisdom at Work: The Making of a Modern Elder" and his latest release, "Learning to Love Midlife: 12 Reasons Why Life Gets Better with Age." In these books, he shares insights on navigating the challenges and opportunities that come with aging and redefining our perceptions of what it means to be an "elder."
Chip's message is clear: midlife should not be seen as a decline but rather as a time for growth, learning, and contribution. By embracing this mindset, we can unlock our potential and lead fulfilling lives well into our Second Prime. So, whether you're in your midlife years or approaching them, take Chip's advice and view this time as an opportunity to discover your purpose and create a life of longevity and quality. The Modern Elder Academy is here to support you on that journey. So let's embrace our Second Prime with open arms and unlock our potential together!
