Discover Upcoming Wisdom

Thriving in Your Empty Nest Chapter

September 3, 2025 12:00 PM PT 03:00 PM ET

Join us for a candid exploration of one of parenting’s most profound shifts, when the daily work of raising your children transforms overnight.

Hosted by MEA’s Kari Cardinale, this dynamic panel features four parents from our MEA family navigating this transition in real time, offering unfiltered insights from their own empty nest journeys.

We’ll unpack why today’s empty nesting bears little resemblance to previous generations – it’s messy, non-linear, and reshapes everything from your identity to your marriage.

In this engaging conversation, we’ll explore:

  • Pivotal moments that signal this new chapter has begun
  • Mastering the revolving door of young adults who launch, land, and launch again
  • Reclaiming your sense of self when your central role suddenly shifts
  • Designing your reinvention rather than just surviving the change
  • Battle-tested strategies from parents who are walking this path

This is authentic wisdom from the front lines of a transition that touches millions, yet leaves most of us feeling completely alone.

How to Be a World-Class ‘Mentern’: Mastering the Skills of Mutual Mentorship

September 9, 2025 12:00 PM PT 03:00 PM ET

In this timely and energizing conversation, How to Live Forever author and CoGenerate founder Marc Freedman joins MEA’s Kari Cardinale to explore a bold new vision of aging—one where generations don’t just coexist, they collaborate.

Marc reveals how modern life has quietly siloed us by age and why breaking out of those bubbles can unlock deeper purpose, unexpected creativity, and a renewed sense of belonging.

At the heart of this shift is becoming a “mentern”—someone who can both mentor and learn at the same time. Marc and Kari will share why this skill matters now more than ever, and how mutual mentorship sparks growth, joy, and connection across generations.

Because your experience doesn’t just matter. It may be exactly what the world needs right now.

Living With Loss: From Grief to Grounded Renewal

November 13, 2025 12:00 PM PT 03:00 PM ET

In this deeply moving live chat, trauma therapist and grief educator Meghan Jarvis joins MEA’s Mary Hofstedt to explore how we can navigate life’s most disorienting losses – not by “getting over” them, but by learning to carry them with greater steadiness and self-trust.

Meghan will share with us why traditional talk therapy often falls short when it comes to grief, and how her groundbreaking method helps people process loss through the wisdom of the body. She’ll share why grief deserves daily care, how to calm a nervous system thrown off course by loss, and practical tools for moving forward when everything feels raw and uncertain.

Whether you (or someone you love) are grieving a loved one, relationship, role, or sense of identity, Meghan offers a compassionate roadmap for finding your footing again – one grounded step at a time.



Vital After 50: Master Your Metabolic Reset

November 20, 2025 12:00 PM PT 03:00 PM ET

Join us for an intimate talk with wellness pioneers Jeff Krasno and Schuyler Grant, the duo behind Wanderlust festivals and Commune, an online learning platform offering courses and conversations with leading voices in health, personal growth, and social impact, as we explore evidence-based approaches to metabolic health, movement, and vitality in midlife and beyond.

Hosted by MEA’s Derek Gehl, this live conversation offers a unique opportunity to learn from this power couple whose practical methods have helped thousands reclaim their energy and transform their relationship with aging.

You’ll learn practical, science-backed ways to build sustainable wellness habits, boost resilience with thermal therapy and breathwork, improve sleep and energy, and create movement that fuels rather than drains you.

This is your opportunity to create a wellness blueprint that grows with you over time
