Almost everyone of a certain age has, at some point, paused to take stock of their existence up until that moment. And far too often, they come away disappointed, feeling that some ambition has gone unfulfilled, or some talent has gone undeveloped…and yet, they continue on with their trajectory, unsure of how to change course.
It’s an unsettling touchstone…but it can also be pivotal. It’s the time to ask yourself the crucial questions: What if I could change my life? What if I could be a better version of myself?
The eleven contributors to MBA at 58 offer up their stories of how they themselves tackled those difficult questions, and how they wound up changing their lives for the better as a result. Inside you’ll read stories of unbelievable resiliency and grit, of heartbreaking loss met with steely resolve, of people shaking off defeat to come back stronger, prouder — and better.
MBA at 58 is more than a collection of inspiring stories — it’s a primer on reinventing oneself, on changing a long-established mindset, on deconstructing convention and embracing innovation. The tales themselves may be individual, but the message is universal: I did it…and so can you.

Are you looking to make a change for the better…but don’t know where to start? MBA at 58 is the perfect jumping-off point — a springboard to a better future, a better life…a better YOU!
