Description
Why is it that we find it harder to accept and adapt to change as we grow older? On today’s show, Darius talks to rebel hospitality entrepreneur, New York Times bestselling author, and fellow Austinite, Chip Conley who shares with us his distilled wisdom on navigating change and mid-life. At the age of 26, he founded Joie de Vivre Hospitality (JdV), transforming an inner-city motel into the second largest boutique hotel brand in America. At the age of 50, after 24 years of being the CEO, Chip felt the need to move on. But this was not an easy transition as he found himself uncomfortable and questioning his self-worth for a while. It was not long before he found his calling once again as Airbnb’s Head of Global Hospitality and Strategy. Today, he acts as the company’s Strategic Advisor for Hospitality and Leadership. We talk a great deal about his new passion project, Modern Elder Academy. At MEA, Chip is helping folks better stave off a mid-life crisis. You will learn about the inevitability of change, and the need to let go of your emotional baggage. And how you can overcome your compulsive and admiration seeking nature as you make this transition.
