ReSet: From Transition to Possibility
Learning in a community of curious, collaborative and creative individuals who intentionally come together to contemplate and design their next stage of life not only strengthens us as individuals but also provides a strong sense of community that cultivates belonging, support and interconnection, all factors that also contribute to longer, healthier lives.
We are living longer than any generation before us, yet our culture and institutions are still built on a 20th-century “learn-earn-retire” model. That model no longer fits a century-long life. With a longevity bonus of 20 to 30 years, we need to explore how to balance our health, wealth and well-being with meaning and purpose.
