Customer Reviews
Great podcast!
This podcast makes me excited for more adventure in my life! I love that Michael Ivan is willing to try so many different things, even if it puts him outside of his comfort zone. We could all be a bit more like him.
Just need to say “yes!” Love it. Great podcast.
Lighthearted. Thoughtful. Curious. Kind.
This podcast is the perfect antidote for morbid mortality thought loops. “What have I done?!” is gently & sweetly replaced with “There’s so much to try!” Michael Ivan & friends are in your ears to inspire a higher level of optimism and faith in your own capacities. The curiosity and open-mindedness that underpins the Fifty to 50 concept is refreshing. Try something new & give it a listen!
The Odyssey
Great concept. I’m in for the Odyssey all the way. And KS “...may you stay forever young”.
