The world is changing faster than the plans we made decades ago.  Good. That means you’re allowed to change, too.

WHAT HAPPENS HERE

You’re not looking for another generic program.  You’re looking for a place to rethink how you live and work in this season — so you can build a life and work you don’t want to retire from — without burning down what you’ve already built —  and still have the energy and money left to enjoy it.

With longer lives, we need our money to last longer — and we need disposable income for longer, too.

Sometimes, a right-sized micro-enterprise is the simplest bridge to healthy financial wellbeing — and AI can make it faster and lighter to start.

That’s what Midlife Wisdom School is here for.

We help midlife leaders, entrepreneurs, changemakers, and creatives:

• Turn decades of experience into a clear, compelling next chapter — with meaningful work, income, and contribution.
• Explore micro-enterprises, portfolio careers, and redesigned roles that fit who you are now.
• Build the calm and capacity to pursue what’s next without burning out.

We’re the first generation likely to have multiple careers, businesses, and income streams in our second adulthood — which means we need new maps, not old retirement scripts.

TWO WAYS TO BEGIN

1. Calm Capacity Quiz

3 Minutes, Zero Pressure: The Calm Capacity Quiz

A simple, no-pressure way to start.  Before you change anything on the outside, it helps to understand what happens on the inside when you’re under stress. This quick quiz helps you name your current “calm capacity” — and gives you a few grounded next steps.  In just a few minutes, you’ll:

• See how your calm holds up when life gets noisy
• Get one or two gentle next steps to support your capacity

2. Reinvention Accelerator 

A live, 60-minute working session for midlife leaders, entrepreneurs, changemakers, and creatives who are ready to treat this chapter as a serious next move — not a slow fade.  You’ll:

• Name what’s no longer working in your current chapter
• Clarify the kind of life, work, income, and impact you want more of
• Identify a few experiments you can run over the next 90 days

IS THIS YOU?

The world is changing faster than the plans we made decades ago — and that’s not a reason to fear the future.  It’s a reason to be excited about it.

Midlife has quietly become one of the longest stages of life.  Yet unlike adolescence, we don’t have clear rites of passage or a social structure helping us grow into it.

Midlife Wisdom School is part roadmap, part community — the scaffolding for this new life stage.

Here, the journey is in-to-out, not here-to-there.

You might be in the right place if:

• On paper, you’re successful — but inside, you feel restless, like your life is playing too small for you now.
• “Retirement” doesn’t feel like a finish line — you want a richer, more alive next chapter.
• You care about your nervous system as much as your schedule and are ready to lead from calm, not constant strain.

 If you’re nodding along, you’re not done — you’re just ready for a new map.

If you’re nodding, you’re not alone. You’re in the right place.

Meet Elizabeth Harrington

And if you’re wondering who’s behind Midlife Wisdom School, hi — I’m Elizabeth.

I created Midlife Wisdom School for midlife leaders, entrepreneurs, changemakers, and creatives who feel the shift and want a calmer, clearer way to step into what’s next.

In the 1990s, during a recession and high unemployment, I co-founded Canada’s Self-Employment Assistance initiative in Toronto with two colleagues. Once the project was given the green light, I developed the Sales and Marketing training for new and emerging entrepreneurs. 

Micro-enterprise has been a passion of mine ever since, because it gives people real options without requiring them to overhaul their whole lives. In the AI era, it can be even more doable, because AI reduces startup time and overhead and helps you move from idea to offer faster.

After decades in executive leadership, wellness, and education — plus my own health and life wake-up calls — I became obsessed with one question:

“How do we design a rich next chapter — one we wouldn’t dream of retiring from?”

My work blends conscious leadership, nervous-system intelligence, and interactive, facilitated online experiences where you think, reflect, and take next steps with real support. I help you show up with calm, grounded presence, get clear about what matters now, and take grounded next steps toward a life that fits — from the inside out.

I’m not here as a guru on a mountaintop. I’m here as a guide on the trail — walking beside you as you navigate what’s next.

If you’re ready to feel steady again and make your next move with clarity, you don’t have to do it alone — we’ll take it one grounded step at a time.
