The Spacemakers

We all get stuck at some point in life—whether it's a broken relationship, money issues, ill health, a stale career, or a lack of purpose. Getting stuck isn't fun, but it's often the catalyst we need to find a new direction. In fact, when we feel like we're losing, we might actually be just where we need to be, preparing the way for a better second half. Join Daniel Sih and Matt Bain in the latest season of The Spacemakers as they explore the concept of chiasma—a beginning, middle, and new beginning—and unveil the SHIFT framework to help you get unstuck in one or more areas of your life, paving the way for a surprising second half.Make sure to checkout previous seasons of The Spacemakers podcast.Discover more:SPACEMAKERS WEBSITEYOUTUBERAISING TECH HEALTHY HUMANSThis season is made possible with support from our sponsors: Bulk Nutrients, Banjo's Bakery Cafes and BlundstoneThis podcast is recorded and produced by Production Farm Studios

In this episode of The Spacemakers, Daniel Sih and Matt Bain discuss the “mid-life money reset.” Drawing from the fable of The Ant and the Grasshopper, they explore the complexity of making wise financial choices during the mid-life squeeze. When is delayed gratification wise, and when is it foolish? When should we shift from saving to ‘dissaving'? And how do we juggle the demands of saving for the future while enjoying the present?

One common piece of career advice is to “follow your heart”—that is, pursue what you love and chase your passions. While this may be great advice at 40, it can be downright misleading at 20, as what works in one season of life may not apply in the next. In this episode, Daniel Sih and Matt Bain continue their exploration of career resets as the years go by. We'll discuss the importance of building career capital through deliberate practice and the value of “actively doing nothing” to uncover your life's meaning.Resources: GET A FREE SUMMARY OF SEASON 2 with print-ready activitiesLIFEPLANSTRENGTHSKAIROS MOMENTS VIDEODiscover more:SPACEMAKERS WEBSITEYOUTUBERAISING TECH HEALTHY HUMANSThis season is made possible with support from our sponsors: Banjo's Bakery CafesThis podcast is recorded and produced by Production Farm StudiosMentioned in this episode:Banjo's Bakery Café's - FRANCHISEES 1A warm thanks to our sponsor, Banjo's Bakery Café's, who are expanding across Australia and looking for new franchisee's!

You are never too old to change your career. The average Australian changes jobs 13 times in their lifetime, with many taking up study or starting businesses in their 40s. While career resets are challenging at any age, they are particularly so in mid-life.

What does it truly mean to be productive and accomplish the right things? The answer evolves with age. In our 20s, embracing new experiences and saying "yes" often helps build skills and confidence.
