About This Podcast
Are you moving through midlife and feeling a growing vacuum? Whether you are navigating midlife struggles, approaching a retirement transition, or already retired but feeling unsatisfied, you’ve realized that the old script for the second half of life is blank.
Welcome to Not Done Yet! Purpose & Possibility Through Life's Second Half. Hosted by Dr. Brad Cooper—executive, husband, father, and elite masters endurance athlete—this podcast is a dedicated roadmap for high-achievers who refuse to settle for a downward path to the status quo.
Society tells us that life after 50, 60, and 70 is a time to slow down, but we believe those in their second act represent the world’s greatest untapped natural resource. We don’t just talk about retirement life; we explore "pretirement," healthspan, and how to trade a passive existence for a life of vibrant meaning.
Each week, we dive into:
- Purpose & Midlife Reinvention: Rediscovering a brand-new "why" in your 50s and 60s.
- The Second Mountain: Moving beyond career success to deep personal significance.
- Longevity & Vitality: Evidence-based practices for high-performance aging and maintaining an upward-aiming mindset.
- Pro-Aging Mindsets: Slashing through the "shoulds" to pursue a life of possibility.
Drawing from timeless wisdom and the latest behavioral science, Dr. Cooper helps you distinguish the "still, small voice" of true calling from the noise of the world.
If you’re ready to trade "passively ever after" for a forward-oriented call to adventure, you’re in the right place. Hit Follow and join a community of world-changers who know beyond a shadow of a doubt:
We are… not… done… yet!
