What is Halftime?

Many people measure their success by wealth, recognition, power and status. There’s nothing wrong with those, but if that’s all you’re focused on you’re missing the boat. Using your time and talent to serve others - that’s when truly meaningful success can come your way.

“Halftime” is a term for a period in life that was coined by Bob Buford, author of the best-selling book by the same title. It refers to the stage that many people reach (usually somewhere mid-life) where they become more aware of their life, where it is going and where they want it to change.

It is a time when (despite and often following success) frustration and emptiness motivate people to start asking the hard questions and seek more life-purpose. It is birthed out of the desire to leave a legacy and to make a difference.

YOU’RE NOT ALONE

More than 12,000 people turn 50 each day in America, and a Harvard-Met Life study shows that more than half of these individuals want more meaning and significance in their second half. But this is still a very new phenomenon.

HOW DO YOU GET FROM HERE TO THERE?

The healthiest Halftimers do not travel the road alone. Rather, they connect with peers who are on their own journey and learn from others who have successfully made it to the other side.

WE CAN HELP
