Summary

“I think there’s so many folks out there that, that think of aging. In midlife as a point whereby which everything is downhill from here. And I certainly haven’t hit my stride yet. And my future is bright and I want to kick some ass for the next 30, 40, 50 years. And I want to take others along on the ride and hear their stories and how they’re doing it.” – Craig Sweeney What do you think of when you hear the term “badass”? The leather clad rocker on the Harley? Navy SEALs? Mixed Martial Artists? How about the middle-aged person you see in the mirror every morning? Craig Sweeny, founder of Over 50 Badass, challenges us to unleash our inner badass simply by living the best life we can live and being the person we know we can be. Craig discusses: * The high school reunion that was the genesis for Over 50 Badass * Getting out of the midlife ruts * How to approach changing jobs or careers in midlife * Moving past those who don’t want us to change or improve. Ready to become the badass you were meant to be?

This is Broc Edwards. And today I’ve got Craig Sweeney. Craig. Can you do just a quick introduction about yourself? Who are you and what are you up to? Craig: [00:00:07] Yeah, well, I’ll lead with my age because this is Midlife Mastery. So I’m a gen X-er, 54 years old resided in the beautiful state of Wisconsin. And I about two years ago now started a niche media company called over 50 badass and started off with an email newsletter. We are actually. I will say rejiggering the whole platform right now and, and coming out with a new community platform that will consist of the newsletter and the upcoming podcast. Some courseware online courseware and some other, some other neat things virtual and in-person events on down the road are there. But so just looking at life I think, you know, from the perspective of the glass, you know, getting being, you know, not half-full but, but certainly more than half full. And so I think there’s so many folks out there that, that think of aging. In midlife as a point whereby which everything is downhill from here. And I certainly haven’t hit my stride yet. And my, my future is bright and I want to kick some ass for the next 30, 40, 50 years. And I want to take others along on the ride and hear their stories and how they’re doing it.
