Maria Sophia is a spiritual teacher who transitioned from a successful career in start-ups and Fortune 500 companies to embrace her authentic intuitive gifts. Despite achieving corporate success, Maria felt limited in expressing her full potential in traditional work environments. Her journey of self-discovery led her to dedicate more time to spiritual practices, where she found a community that recognized and valued her unique abilities. This shift in perspective empowered Maria to fully embrace her spiritual gifts and channel them into serving others. Now, as a spiritual teacher, she guides individuals to access their own innate "superpowers" by encouraging them to look inward rather than seeking external validation. Maria's approach combines her corporate experience with spiritual insight, helping clients unlock their authentic intuitive gifts for personal growth and fulfillment.

Chip also highlights the value of intergenerational collaboration and its impact during his time at Airbnb. He explores how indigenous wisdom influences the academy's approach and discusses how psychedelics can aid in navigating midlife transitions. Finally, Chip shares his vision for regenerative communities, and shares lessons on the ego and the soul that he gleaned from building a boutique hotel chain.
Chip Conley:
Chip Conley is on a midlife mission. After disrupting the hospitality industry twice, first as the founder of Joie de Vivre Hospitality, the second-largest operator of boutique hotels in the U.S., and then as Airbnbâs Head of Global Hospitality and Strategy, leading a worldwide revolution in travel, Conley co-founded MEA (Modern Elder Academy) in January 2018 in Baja California, Mexico. Inspired by his experience of intergenerational mentoring as a âmodern elderâ at Airbnb, where his guidance was instrumental to the companyâs extraordinary transformation from fast-growing start-up to the worldâs most valuable hospitality brand, MEA is the world's first âmidlife wisdom schoolâ and has a campus opening on a 2,600-acre regenerative horse ranch in Santa Fe, New Mexico in April 2024. Dedicated to reframing the concept of aging, MEA supports students to navigate midlife with a renewed sense of purpose and possibility. A New York Times bestselling author, Conley's seventh book "Learning to Love Midlife: 12 Reasons Why Life Gets Better with Age" is about rebranding midlife to help people understand the upside of this often-misunderstood life stage, and gave a 2023 TED talk on the "midlife chrysalis."
