You’ve Achieved Everything You Set Out For—So Why Does It Feel Like Something’s Missing? 

 

You’ve spent decades building a life that checks every box—a life by the book.  Success, security, reputation—it’s all there. 

 

But a quiet voice keeps asking:  “Is this all there is?”   

 

I can tell you from my own journey - it’s not.  There’s more for you. 

 

It’s time to write the second-half story of your life.

Meet Your Guide

I know what it feels like to wake up and wonder how you got here. On paper, everything looks right—a career, a full calendar, the life you thought you wanted. But deep down, something’s off. You’re stuck. Waiting. Treading water in a life that no longer inspires you.

That was me. At 45, I was a public company executive at the top of my game. I had climbed the ladder, reached the summit, and ticked every box. But something wasn’t right. My ‘Normal 40 Moment’ hit—I realized my work there was done. I had outgrown my life, and staying would cost me more than leaving.

Normal 40 isn’t just a community. It’s a feeling, a process and a movement for high achievers ready to take inventory, get curious, and chase what’s next.

This is your start. You’re not alone.

Let’s be up to something.

From your corner,

Lon gave me insights on things I did not recognize in myself. It has been quite the journey for the last 6 months, but my marriage is better, my relationship with my kids is better, I have got control of my time and in general just feel lighter and less stressed than I ever have.

David Slobotski

When I first found Lon, I was at the moment in my life that I needed to make some decisions. Lon helped me to realize that it is better to take a swing and miss than never stepping up to bat. I started my own business, own my calendar, my time with my kids and time with my wife.

Matt Blaylock

Lon’s coaching and this book inspired me to make the trade, and I’m on my journey for my second half story. It's allowed me to articulate and communicate my feelings in a way I wouldn’t otherwise be able to and realize what I’m feeling is normal. You make the decision on the trades you want for your second half. The time is now.
