  • Always seeing the glass has half full..

    A great inspirational podcast! I first discovered John O’Leary when he spoke to our company. That speech inspired me to read his book, “On Fire,” which then turned me on to his podcast. The guests and their stories are so inspirational and filled with hope. Each episode can help alter your perspective to one of viewing the glass as half full. There is always an approach of viewing life’s biggest challenges as an opportunity for growth and transformation.

Longevity Expert Lynda Gratton on Living the 100-Year Life (ep. 916)
Q: In a nutshell, what is the core idea of Living the 100-Year Life?
Life expectancy is rising, so people will need to work longer and plan across multiple life stages, using a weave of eight threads to stay productive and connected rather than chasing a single ladder to the top.
