Life includes many major culminating moments: we finish the big work project, receive the award, watch the kids leave home, go on the vacation, win the title, or enter retirement. These experiences can come with enormous fulfillment…for a while. And then, we might ask ourselves: Now what? In this episode, we explore that question, including how we can relate to the past, integrate learning, turn toward the future, and age well through life.
