The Art of Full Time Living:

Design a Meaningful and Connected Life

Is a longer healthspan a gift or a dilemma for midlife women?

The three stages of life — study, work, and retirement — are no longer relevant to women in the 21st century. We are now living and working longer than ever. 

So as you reach middle age, it’s a great time to think about what you want from the second half of your life. 

Without models, plans, or manuals that tell you how to do this, it’s natural to feel stuck as you approach your midlife transition. 

It’s unclear how to chart the new waves of social and work disruption whilst being well-prepared for a holistic long-term future.

Welcome to the Art of Full Time Living.

Lead a meaningful and connected life in the second half of your life with Full Time Living

 
 

Full Time Living is an attitude of curiosity and being connected to your purpose so that you can contribute to something bigger in meaningful ways.

It’s a holistic lifestyle of habits to help maintain physical, mental and spiritual vitality over a long, healthy life. You have an intergenerational community of diverse people who appreciate and support each other so you can make choices that are right for you over the long term. 

To have enough wealth to do the things that inspire, stimulate and energise you to live a healthy, meaningful and connected 100-year life.

The midlife woman behind Full Time Lives

 
 

Natalie Yan-Chatonsky (she/her) is an Asian Australian creating positive social change for midlife and older women.

She collaborates with organisations that care about empowering women to be able to make choices in how they work, live and play at each stage of their life so that everyone has equal opportunities to lead a healthy, meaningful and connected life.
