Why Mid Life is Not Really About Mid Life with Mark J Silverman

Mark J. Silverman is no stranger to adversity and life’s obstacles. After beating addiction and homelessness, Mark started his journey to becoming a resiliency expert, public speaker, leadership coach, and the #1 Amazon bestselling author of Only 10s: Using Distraction to Get the Right Things Done. Mark helps high-performing entrepreneurs and leaders achieve greater heights and find sustainable, fulfilling success in their life and business. He is also the host of the popular podcast, Mastering Midlife, where he speaks with high-performance business leaders to unlock their secrets of mastering life’s challenges to create a life of sustainable, fulfilling success.

Mark joins me today to discuss why he believes mid-life is not really about mid-life and why it’s more about discovering what you truly want in life. He shares why society believes the hustle and grind of success are worth the insurmountable challenges and obstacles we face to achieve it and why he decided to be the voice that challenged this mindset and help others realize that success and fulfillment do not have to be mutually exclusive. He shares his lessons about mid-life, why your age has nothing to do with when you experience a ‘midlife crisis,’ and his mission to help others realize we are all free to create the person we want to be and the life we want to live.

“It is absolutely possible - and preferable - to be wildly successful and sane.” - Mark J. Silverman
