What We’ll Explore Together
Session 1: What 10 Roles Do You Play in Your Life?
A guided exploration of identity, purpose,
and the roles shaping who you are today.
We all play multiple roles—some chosen, some inherited, some we didn’t realize had so much influence. In this session, you’ll map out the ten roles that define your life right now and uncover which ones energize you, drain you, or deserve more of your attention. This conversation brings clarity to how you show up in the world—and how you want to show up moving forward.
Session 2: Understanding Yourself Through MBTI
A light, practical look at personality patterns, preferences, and how they influence your relationships and decisions.
We’ll explore the core MBTI functions in a grounded, non-rigid way—no stereotypes or “typecasting.” Instead, you’ll learn how your natural tendencies affect communication, motivation, conflict, and connection. You’ll leave with a clearer sense of what feels authentic to you and how to work with your strengths more intentionally.
Session 3: Living Mindfully & Intentionally
in a Busy World
Small shifts. Sustainable habits.
More clarity in the middle of chaos.
This session guides you through accessible mindfulness practices—connecting with the body, slowing down, and noticing the signals you often rush past. We’ll talk about intention-setting, routines that support your well-being, and ways to create micro-moments of presence even when life feels full.
No perfection required—just curiosity & compassion.
Session 4: The Values Auction: What Do You Truly Prioritize?
A playful but powerful exercise to understand what you really value—beyond what you think you “should” value.
In this interactive activity, you’ll “bid” on the values that matter most to you—family, honesty, creativity, achievement, adventure, stability, community— revealing how you naturally allocate your limited resources, attention, and energy.
The outcome is surprisingly insightful: your bids often reflect your truest priorities, even when your answers on paper say otherwise. Expect some surprises, some clarity, and maybe even a nudge toward living more in line with what actually matters most in your life.
As an added bonus...
When you join the Jump Start Conversation Series, you’ll also receive my Jump Start Your Midlife workbook—a companion guide designed to help you take these conversations even deeper.
Inside, you’ll find reflection prompts that expand on each session’s theme, practical tools for understanding yourself more clearly, and tips for navigating the complexity and possibility of midlife with more confidence, curiosity, and intention.
It’s yours to use at your own pace, and many people tell me it becomes a meaningful touchpoint they return to again and again.

Hey There, I'm Billy Lahr!
Mindfulness Coach • Educator • Podcast Host • Serial Overthinker
Hi, I’m Billy—a former high school English teacher turned mindful and intentional living coach. For the past four years, I've produced and hosted of The Mindful Midlife Crisis, a podcast for people navigating the complexities and possibilities of life's second half.
Over the past 20+ years, I’ve taught thousands of students, coached adults from all over the world, built communities in Seoul and beyond, and guided conversations that help people reflect, reset, and grow.
But I’m also someone who has sat in the middle of a midlife pivot asking: What am I doing? Who am I becoming? And how do I slow down enough to hear what my life is trying to tell me?
My work blends structure and self-awareness, logic and intuition, personal development and real-world practicality. I’m here to help you make sense of the chaos, reconnect with your values, and build the kind of life that feels intentional—not accidental.
If you’re craving clarity, community, or a space to think out loud, you’re in the right place.
