Christopher Zinn interviews Chip Conley, founder of the Modern Elder Academy
Chip Conley is the founder of the Modern Elder Academy. It’s a response to the social movement of older people defying stultifying convention and making the most of their and others’ lives.
The academy, which has now come to Australia as MEAx, is dedicated not only to inspiring and empowering people in midlife and beyond, but also to disrupting society’s outdated attitudes towards aging.
Naturally, the FiftyUp Club is interested in how our members might learn some lessons from this work or even join in themselves.
I talked via Zoom with Chip from his home in New Mexico, USA.
The MEAx courses, both online and in-person, help people to navigate transitions, find purpose, reframe their mindset on aging and answer the burning question; “what’s next?” The first MEAx workshop is the popular 8-week online course Navigating Midlife Transitions, commencing on 3 October 2021.

FiftyUp Club earns a commission for each member that takes up the offer.
