As we reach midlife, we find ourselves confronted with the lives we will never lead, with possibilities foreclosed, and with the allure of nostalgia for lost youth. Our days become a grind of tasks to be pursued and then completed; life can feel hollow even when we are getting things done.

In this Career Lunch and Learn webinar from May 24, 2019, Kieran Setiya, professor of philosophy at MIT, will explain the social science behind the idea of a midlife crisis and share strategies for adapting to adulthood and middle age, showing how philosophy can help you thrive.

Learn why missing out might be a good thing, what it would mean to ‘live in the present,’ and when you should be glad you made a mistake.

Presented by: Kieran Setiya
