How to Survive Midlife Without a Crisis

Is midlife leaving you exhausted, unmotivated, and apathetic?

Be careful. You could be heading toward a crisis.

A couple of years ago, I began to feel it. If you’ve hit midlife, I know you feel it, too. A quiet desperation settles in as your hair thins and waistlines expand. On Sunday evenings, a spirit of dread drapes you like a cold blanket because Monday morning is coming.

Are our best days behind us, pulling us under the steady rolling wheels of time?

Is a crisis the only way to get through midlife?

Fighting Back Against Midlife

I decided to fight back.

When Caleb (of the Bible) hit midlife, he said, “I am still as strong today as I was in the day that Moses sent me; my strength now is as my strength was then, for war and for going and coming.” (Joshua 14:11).

That’s who I want to be. And that’s who I set out to be.

I’ve learned a lot on the journey, and I want to share my experiences with you.

Stronger Down the Stretch

Imagine looking forward to Monday mornings instead of hurling your phone across the room when the alarm goes off. Envision your days filled with vigor, strength, and excitement, knowing you’re living the grand purpose for which God created you.

You can!

I’ve written a book about surviving midlife without a crisis. The book is more than theories — it’s my journey into midlife. These ideas are battle-tested, proven, and transformed my life.

A Review of the Book, Stronger Down the Stretch

Here’s what Aaron had to say about my book, Stronger Down the Stretch – Surviving Midlife Without a Crisis:

Brady speaks with candor and draws from a deep well of experience and Biblical wisdom sharing practical steps to help men reinvigorate their spiritual, emotional and physical well being.” Aaron S.
