Ah! I am a Modern Elder Academy Alum and can say that Chip will make an excellent guest! I am looking forward to it! Thank you Susan! Your Candlelight Chats have been such a delight for me. I feel I have found my people. 😉💞
Remembering Midlife…I would like to share it was such a rich and expanding time as a woman…and now in my final years appreciate it even more…the Adventure of those years! As I move more slowly , and think more deeply these days, I know the Gifts of those “Awe Ha” Moments I experienced during midlife…now allowing me another sense of understanding of who I have always been at my Core! That brings a deep peace and smile ♥️💫
Sadly, it will be impossible for me to tune in Sunday; I look forward to the recording.
Perhaps unlike many of your community members who anticipate or are already engage in midlife, I look back on it over half a lifetime. At 91, what could this experience possibly offer?
Answer: Wisdom on living life is always relevant and, if Susan Cain is the channel through which it is delivered, I know this will be time well spent.
I'm very excited about this upcoming session! Although now beyond midlife, I still feel that there is so much to explore about this topic... and life beyond midlife to the sacred elder years. Uncharted territory indeed. I feel the true bittersweetness of this time of life more viscerally and deeply, feel the sweetness of the last drops of wine in the bottle, feel the sacredness of each breath never knowing when the last one will be, but now definitely aware that there will be a last one. I feel more deeply, cry more frequently, am more present to each moment, embrace my solitude, appreciate the boundaries more that I didn't feel the right to set when younger, walk away much more easily from that which does not nourish, reach out to strangers in a way that sometimes connects in surprisingly deep ways, embrace all the feelings.. even if they knock me down for a while, invite grief to sit beside me as it doesn't seem to be going anywhere these days, and marvel at the internal rage and passion that is still so very much there even if not seen by others.
Thank you so much for bringing this rich subject to our next Candlelight!
Oh I will definitely be there for this one! Midlife sneaks up on you and no one is really prepared for what it is you are supposed to do with the time.
I would like to ask, because Chip is a male human being, is this talk centered about the way men experience midlife?
Where do we get the zoomlink, please?

That is so kind, thank you, Al, and we will miss you!
