My passion, as a gerontologist and coach, is to change our national conversation about what it means to be in midlife. The years we have added to our lives aren’t at the end – they are in the middle. These 20+ years are a brand new life stage no one has named or knows what to do with. Until now. I call it Middlescence.

Join me in a movement to change how we think about and live this new life stage. Find the power and potential to transform your life personally and professionally.

About Barbara

"Barbara Waxman's empathetic and practical approach to inspiring people to embrace midlife is a marvel to watch.

She is able to ignite the passion of midlife in her clients and students partly because she is such a role model for this passionate way of being."
