189: Life After 40 Conversations with Philip Blackett: Lance Cayko on Burnout and Stoic Work-Life Harmony
Yesterday00:51:23Tap to summarizeThis Life After 40 Conversations episode is an interview with Lance Cayko, co-founder of F9 Productions, architect, entrepreneur, educator, and podcaster, who shares how midlife has shifted his relationship with work, health, family, and success. Philip Blackett frames the conversation around life after 40 as a season for meaning making, not pressure, and Lance brings a grounded perspective shaped by burnout, stoicism, and a renewed focus on harmony over balance.We discuss what happens when growth stops being the goal for its own sake, why health and hydration became non-negotiable, and how empathy changed the way Lance leads both blue-collar and white-collar teams. The conversation also explores trust, pricing, customer service, retirement, and the discipline required to keep playing the hand you are dealt.Resources to Connect with Lance:Lance's podcast: https://www.insidethefirmpodcast.com/Lance's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lance-cayko-1227031a/Midlife is worth living — and living well.

Yesterday00:59:26Tap to summarizeIn this Life After 40 Conversations episode, Philip Blackett speaks with Jody Brooks about what happens when midlife exposes a deep mismatch between your outer success and inner well-being. Jody shares how a burnout crisis forced him to stop performing, get clear on his values, and rebuild his life around authenticity, health, and purpose.We discuss the hidden cost of “I’m fine,” the role of identity loss in midlife, and how Jody’s nine principles of authentic living helped him move from survival to thriving.Key frameworks1. The unread messages metaphor - Ignored inner signals keep building until they demand attention.2. The values bridge - Clarifying core values creates a bridge back to your inner self.3. The bus metaphor - Midlife is about deciding where you want your life to go instead of staying on someone else’s route.4. The messy middle - Uncertainty is not failure; it is often where growth and creativity happen.5. Rhythm over routine - Life works better as a flexible rhythm than a rigid schedule.If anything in this conversation resonates more deeply than expected, please know you don’t have to go through it alone.Support is available:988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline – Call or text 988If in immediate danger, call 911Psychology Today – Find a licensed therapist near youBetterHelp – Start online therapy quicklyNeed Him Global – Call 1-888-NEED-HIMChatAboutJesus.com – Chat with someone about life, faith, and hopeMidlife is worth living… and if it doesn’t feel that way right now, reaching out is the strongest step you can take.Midlife is worth living — and living well.
