What we’re about
One step, one conversation, one laugh at a time.
That’s how reinvention begins.
Because let’s be honest — sometimes life doesn’t go the way we planned.
But that doesn’t mean we’re stuck. It means we get to start again — with intention.
After divorce, separation, or career loss, it can feel like the rug’s been pulled out from under you.
You’re not broken. You’re rebuilding.
The Midlife Reinvention Community is for growth-minded people navigating big shifts like yours — or simply craving more authentic connection.
***
## 👥 Who’s it for?
Men and women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s — especially those navigating midlife transitions. You don’t have to be social. You just have to be real.
A quick note on connection:
- Women often have more built-in support systems, but they’re not immune to loneliness — especially in seasons of change.
- For men, social isolation is quietly rising. Only 27% in the U.S. say they have six close friends (down from 55% in the ’90s). 15% report having none.
This group exists to shift that. No pressure. No need to impress. Just a place to meet people who get it.

## 📍 Based in Northern Virginia
We host relaxed, small-group gatherings — over coffee, on walking trails, around dinner tables, and through seasonal events.
And when food is involved, it’s never just about eating — it’s about the flavors that make you slow down, the conversations that spark ideas you can use, and the shared moments that stay with you long after the plates are cleared. These experiences keep you grounded in the present while giving you space to think forward — helping you picture a future that feels stronger, more focused, and fully yours to build.
A few virtual meetups are also offered for those joining from farther away.

## 💬 What about cost?
Each event is intentionally low-cost but high-value — designed to create spaces where genuine quality connection happens.
That small fee helps keep the group sustainable — covering logistics, space, and thoughtful curation. It also encourages meaningful participation — the kind that builds real community, not just attendance.
As trust builds, members are often welcomed back for future events as guests with no-fee — because community grows strongest through consistency, not one-offs.

## 🪞 How This Started
This began as a daily YouTube journey on Memorial Day — May 27, 2024 — a personal way to process midlife change, grief, and growth.
What started as one person’s reset has grown into a community that now lives across YouTube, LinkedIn, Meetup gatherings, and even books — a space for people choosing to show up for their next chapter.

🧠 Why this matters before the holidays:
📊 U.S. Census & CDC stats show:
• 40% of first marriages end in divorce
• 70% of second
• 73% of third
Why? Because we often choose familiar pain over unfamiliar peace — unless we pause and choose differently.
—🧭 In this session, we’ll explore:
• How to stop chasing — and start choosing
• What love languages reveal (and how to respond when they don’t match)
• Green flags, red flags, and the patterns we miss
• Emotional clarity (in yourself and in others)
• What not to compromise — even when the pressure buildsThis isn’t therapy.
It’s real talk — designed for grounded adults who want something meaningful.
