“I don’t want it to be over!”
It’s the most common thing we hear from alumni when they reach the end of a workshop…
Everyone is always so blown away by everything they’ve learned and experienced – not to mention the deep sense of community they’ve cultivated with their fellow compadres – they want to continue immersing themselves in the magic of MEA even after they’ve returned home.
That’s why we created our Corazón alumni membership program.
We wanted to give you the tools and pathway for continuing your journey of midlife growth – as well as a like-hearted community with whom to share the journey and find the friendship and support you need to thrive, no matter what life throws at you.
Named after the Spanish word for “heart,” Corazón offers you the chance to deepen your connection to your fellow alumni and the MEA core curriculum.
Whether you experienced a week-long immersion with us or attended one of our multi-week online programs, there’s still so much more for you to discover!
During our monthly online Corazón circles, we’ll explore new tools and strategies that will help you live your best life and go even deeper into the ones you learned during your time with us.
Here’s what you’ll get with your membership
12 Monthly Online Wisdom Sessions
Join our co-founders, senior facilitators, and the occasional guest faculty member for monthly online deep dives into the MEA curriculum and other topics around longevity, aging, and finding and living with purpose in midlife.
Breakout Sessions
Our monthly get-togethers will include small-group breakout sessions that give you more opportunity to connect with your fellow MEA alumni and build community as you share and learn from each other.
Meaningful Discussion
We’ll be focused on the topics that matter to us all at this stage of life: exploring who we are and who we want to be, what we want to experience and create, what we need to thrive now and for years to come. And we will be coming to all of it in a spirit of curiosity and awe and fun.
12 Monthly Ongoing Integration Sessions
Got questions about the MEA curriculum or are you seeking input on a particular challenge you’re currently experiencing in your life? Come to our monthly drop-in sessions and get insight from our seasoned faculty.
It’s also a great opportunity to connect with your fellow alumni and share what’s happening in your lives with each other.

Here’s what our Corazón members say
People say "wow you've changed". I don't think I've changed, I think the person inside me can finally come out. I put my walls down and feel so good being me, flaws and all.
Laura Pauli
To make full use of longer lives, we need a new map of life. We must radically rethink the social norms and guideposts that take us through life, from the nature of family to education and work. MEA is a new kind of midlife wisdom school dedicated to helping people chart this new map of life with both social support and a new set of tools that helps you be more adaptable and resilient.
Laura Carstensen
I am a huge fan of MEA which is a great initiative. I love the idea of ‘long-life learning’. It's clear that longer lives and technological change will require lifelong learning, and much of that will be skills-focused and based on jobs. And that’s appropriate. But education has a much deeper role to play.

We love our local alumni chapters and are so grateful for our alumni for running them and giving alumni the opportunity to meet up with each other in person in the region where they live.
Our Corazón membership program differs from the alumni chapters as it is the only one being offered through our organization by our senior faculty, giving you more direct access to all of our incredible teachers and facilitators. It’s also the only one that offers ongoing training from our faculty and allowing you the opportunity to connect more deeply with alumni all over the world.
For people who don’t have vibrant local chapters close to where they live, Corazón offers your best opportunity to stay connected with alumni and continue on your MEA journey.
