So why does it feel like something’s missing?
You’ve spent decades building a life that checks every box—a life by the book. Success, security, reputation—it’s all there.
But a quiet voice keeps asking: “Is this all there is?” I can tell you from my own journey - it’s not.
There’s more for you. It’s time to write the second-half story of your life.
I know what it feels like to wake up and wonder how you got here. On paper, everything looks right—a career, a full calendar, the life you thought you wanted. But deep down, something’s off. You’re stuck. Waiting. Treading water in a life that no longer inspires you.
That was me. At 45, I was a public company executive at the top of my game. I had climbed the ladder, reached the summit, and ticked every box. But something wasn’t right. My ‘Normal 40 Moment’ hit—I realized my work there was done. I had outgrown my life, and staying would cost me more than leaving.
Normal 40 isn’t just a community. It’s a feeling, a process and a movement for high achievers ready to take inventory, get curious, and chase what’s next.
This is your start. You’re not alone.
