In this episode we sit down with Susan Pearse and Matt Elliot to explore what it really means to “win” the second half of life. We learn that it's not about working harder. It is about wisdom, presence and joy. From elite sport and corporate leadership to daily spiritual practice and playful living, Susan and Matt share how they have redefined success and why midlife can be the most expansive chapter yet.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why the second half is not decline but depth.
• Redefining success to focus on who you are being, not what you are proving.
• Letting go of people-pleasing and the need for permission.
• Practical daily pillars that shift mood, mindset and momentum.
• Spirituality as the “main course” that grounds work, parenting and relationships.
• The power of simplicity in leadership, including visible, human connection.
• Choosing fun and curiosity as real performance tools.

How do we truly build resilience? Not just to bounce back, but to grow, evolve, and thrive? In this episode of The Wisdom We Share, we’re joined by Rodger Ruge, certified resilience coach and lifelong martial artist, who brings over 30 years of wisdom to the table from his time in law enforcement, spiritual study, and coaching.

Whether you're navigating trauma, burnout, or just life’s everyday chaos, his perspective on “letting the mud settle” is a soul-level reminder to slow down, breathe, and choose practices that actually work for you.

In this episode, we explore:

• What real resilience means beyond buzzwords
• How trauma, stress and culture intersect in first responder communities
• Why martial arts are powerful tools for mental and emotional resilience
• The breath + mantra combo you can start today (in 3 minutes)
• The science-backed practice that can shift your nervous system
