Empower Over 50
Thoughtful conversations about work, identity, and reinvention after 50.
Empower Over 50 exists to help people over 50 reclaim momentum, direction, and purpose as they navigate the next chapter of work and life.
It does this by sharing real experiences, forward-looking conversations, and practical insight that challenge outdated assumptions about age, work, and relevance — and encourage people to actively shape what comes next.
Coming Home After 50: A Journey of Rediscovery
Max's book Coming Home After 50: A Journey of Rediscovery tells the story behind the channel. A divorce, a bankruptcy, moving countries at 28 with a young family and no money, falling into corporate work that paid the bills but never quite fit. Then losing that job at 56 and discovering that the thing he was meant to do had been waiting for him all along.
It's the story of a golden thread connecting the youth worker who travelled across Europe helping young people in the 1980s to the man now helping his own generation navigate what comes next. Not a self-help book. Not a step-by-step guide. Just a fellow traveler, telling his story. Maybe you will see your self in it too.
