Boomer Fantasy Land?

To whom much has been given, much will be required. We Boomers allow ourselves to use selective memory. We rewire our midlife mindset for the pursuit of ease, comfort, and pleasure.

The Two Most Difficult Things Baby Boomers Can Choose To Do In Midlife

Boomers, Midlife Herd or Midlife Movement?

It’s very simple, Baby Boomers get two incredibly difficult, very scary, choices:

  1. Start off in a new midlife direction (The Movement)
  2. Continue in the same midlife direction (The Herd)
