In this wrap-up of the eight episodes of the series, SECOND-ACT SIGNIFICANCE, host Warwick Fairfax and cohost Gary Schneeberger extract from the stories shared by guests four key steps you can take to pivot from Act 1 to Act 2 in your own life.
I’ve thought of Albie a lot during the last several weeks, as our BEYOND THE CRUCIBLE podcast series Second-Act Significance has unspooled. The beats of what he went through – discovering that there was a richer life on the other side of what occupied years of his attention and effort – has echoed in the stories our guests have shared.
Author and 7:47 Gratitude Experience founder Chris Schembra found the solution to his discouragement and depression in creating community dinners for friends and total strangers.
Yvette Bodden wanted to inspire women to fight through their crucibles to lead lives of significance, so she started her web platform Awakened Woman.
Nancy Volpe Beringer was embarrassed to be jealous of all the new skills her adult son was learning, but she turned it into a challenge for herself: What would she like to learn if she were young again? Her answer was fashion design — and pursuing that career brought her second-act significance.
The “in-between” spaces in life can be uncomfortable, Life-Worth founder John Busacker has discovered, but pressing on toward what you feel called to can fuel your second-act significance.
