“No matter how difficult the past, you can always begin again.”
—Jack Kornfield

Hi, I’m Michael.
I’m a writer, teacher, speaker, and midlife guide. For nearly twenty years, I’ve had the privilege of helping people turn difficult times into opportunities for new beginnings and positive change. My approach is based on the belief that practicing radical authenticity—living wholeheartedly in one’s truth—along with adopting a kinder lifestyle, leads to a greater sense of purpose, peace, and ultimately, lasting happiness.

Mid.life /midˈlīf/ noun
A transformative time after 40 to reclaim your power, express your truth, make peace with the past, and become exactly who you have always wanted to be.

Everyone loves a comeback story. Let’s start yours today.
The middle years can be tough—a time marked by unexpected change, losses, and reassessment of life. As a result, many people in their 40s, 50s, and beyond feel lost. Maybe you feel this way too: burned out, searching for purpose, struggling with relationships, or stuck in a job that leaves you more tired than inspired. If this resonates, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to face this journey alone.

Transform employee burnout into a positive and more productive workplace.
“Your time with our group of YMCA professionals inspired us all. I can’t tell you how many people came up to me throughout the rest of our conference to talk to me about changes they plan on making in their lives due to your message. It was such a great way to kick off our conference!”
—Joseph W. Manzoli, Jr. - CEO, YMCA
