Living the 100-Year Life

by Lynda Gratton

In her new book Living the 100-Year Life, Lynda offers a practical and deeply human guide to navigating longer, ever-changing lives through eight essential threads: mastery, friendship, calm, intimacy, adventure, cooperation, knowing, and amplification. Drawing on global research, expert voices, and the stories of four fictional characters at different life stages, Lynda shows readers how to discover, strengthen, and weave these threads into a working life that is resilient, meaningful, and uniquely their own. This is ultimately a book about living wisely across time, finding joy, purpose, and creativity not by extending life for its own sake, but by making the most of every thread still in your hands.
