Career Transition, Meaning and Midlife – David Buck, Jan Hively and Kate Schaefers - The mission of SHiFT is to help both employed and unemployed people make successful midlife transitions to greater meaning and balance.

SHiFT will be an every-day-of-the-week community (particularly during lunch hour, evenings, and weekends) that connects seekers to the resources they need and convenes programming that is augmentative and complementary to existing career and workforce development programs. SHiFT is a community of seekers supporting people as they uncover and pursue their lifework direction - one that aligns their interest and skills with their passion and purpose, through either a new vocation or a new perspective of their current work. www.shiftonline.org

A quote from the SHiFT website: “Don’t ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive, and then go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” - Harold Thurman Whitman
