Your Next Chapter Can Be Your Most Meaningful Yet

Life changes as we age — but it doesn’t have to get harder. Discover a simpler, lighter way to navigate what’s ahead.

“A taste of wisdom, a lifetime of benefits, with no pressure to continue. Just an invitation to see what’s possible.”

As the years pass, we all face shifts — in health, relationships, roles, and priorities. Some transitions are expected, others arrive without warning. And while they’re not always easy, they don’t have to feel overwhelming.

That’s why we created the Wisdom Years Program — to help you navigate these later chapters with greater clarity, ease, and confidence. Through a series of short, engaging online videos, you’ll tap into and deepen your innate wisdom — and learn how to apply it in practical, everyday ways.

At the heart of the program are the Five Wisdom Keys — simple, powerful tools that give you practical ways to face life’s challenges, let go of what no longer serves you, and embrace what matters most. Together with fresh insights and practical approaches, they’ll help you create more meaning, more ease, and a richer, more fulfilling life.

Who This Is For

If you don't see yourself the way you used to —
life feels different, and you're adjusting to new realities

If your body feels slower, energy comes less
easily, and staying active takes more effort

If you've loved ones, friends, routines, or a sense of connection, and sometimes wonder how to move forward

If you find yourself questioning what's next or fearing the best years may be behind you

If life feels like it's slowing down and you're
unsure how to make these years as rich and meaningful as you'd like

And for those who believe that, in spite of all the challenges, there's still something more — that beautiful possibilities might be ahead and worth reaching for

“Something powerful happens when we share our journeys. This is where insights, laughter, and connection come to life.”

Be Part of The Wisdom Years Community

The Wisdom Years Community is a welcoming space to connect, share, and grow alongside others navigating life’s later chapters. It’s where stories, insights, and wisdom come together — helping you apply what you’ve learned and deepen your experience.

Inside the community, you’ll find people who’ve walked similar paths — people who’ve faced challenges, asked the same questions, and are discovering new possibilities together. You can engage as much or as little as you like: read, listen, share, reflect, or simply be inspired by the conversations.

This isn’t about “one more thing to do.” It’s about finding a place where you feel seen, supported, and connected. A place where wisdom deepens when shared.

And best of all, this community is free — and always will be. Join at your own pace, in your own way, and discover the beauty of learning and growing together.

Meet Rick, Founder and Facilitator

At 11 years old, Rick lost his beloved grandmother — an event that sparked a lifelong curiosity about life, death, and what gives it all meaning. His search led him to explore countless programs and teachings. At 30, Rick found a mentor who showed him that we are unlimited beings, often held back only by our own self-imposed beliefs.

Becoming both a student and a teacher, Rick began helping others free themselves from unnecessary limitations. Throughout his business career, he integrated these principles into his work, helping professionals achieve greater success, fulfillment, and happiness. He traveled to seven countries, teaching thousands how to connect more deeply with themselves, reduce stress, and live more meaningful lives.

Now in his 70s, Rick has created The Wisdom Years Program — the culmination of a lifetime of personal experience, learning, and teaching. With great joy, he shares this program globally, at no cost, helping people break free from old limitations and reconnect with their true self.

Rick’s deepest passion is simple: to help others uncover the truth within themselves. In that discovery, peace and happiness become possible. His teachings align with universal truths found in all major religions and spiritual traditions, yet he presents them in clear, practical terms, making them accessible to anyone, without pressure or dogma.

Here's what health and wellness professionals say about the Wisdom Years Program

Love this program! It is an offering of hope and strength for the later years of our lives. It provides a unique paradigm for approaching this season of life with strength, courage and our own wisdom as it evolves.

It gives a real sense of empowerment in our own natural gifts that can become more evident as the body ages, such a needed reminder in our culture which can tend to be youth and acquisition focused. I really enjoyed the examples given and the personal reflections of Rick, the "guide" on this journey we are all taking. Rick is a living example of what he's encouraging folks to see. What a wonderful opportunity to see this part of life as a gift with all of its challenges!

Connie Corson

MD – Psychiatrist, Sports Enthusiast, Meditation Teacher

Stepping into the Wisdom Years Program felt like being gently welcomed into a sacred circle one where performance gives way to presence, and doing is replaced by simply being.

Rick’s voice and teachings are a balm grounded, soulful, and deeply reassuring. His wisdom is not only refreshing, it’s affirming a loving reminder that this season of life isn’t a slow fade, but a rich unfolding. Each of the five Wisdom Keys offered just the right balance of insight and simplicity, and the journal prompts helped me pause and reconnect with parts of myself that are often quieted by the pace of daily life.

What moved me most was the atmosphere of non-judgment. There are no grades here, no tests to pass. Just space. Spaciousness to reflect. Spaciousness to remember what really matters. And spaciousness to begin living from that deeper place.

This program isn’t just informative it’s transformational. A heartfelt companion for anyone yearning to walk into their later years not with fear or regret, but with clarity, courage, grace and wisdom.

I plan on using this program with my clients as well in my coaching and therapy practice!

Thank you Rick!

This is just so powerful. I think this program will have a profound impact on many, providing tons of guidance and support. This program is a good reminder to embrace what’s around us every day and to find the beauty in the bad or the ugly. The guidance from Rick to stop and breathe is more important than we realize.

Thank You for sharing this. I have no doubt this will impact many people in positive ways.
