The myth:

Society says as you get older, it’s time to slow down, sit down, and wait at the metaphorical bus stop for retirement to come. Your best work is behind you. (eye roll)

The myth:

Society says as you get older, it’s time to slow down, sit down, and wait at the metaphorical bus stop for retirement to come.

Your best work is behind you (eye roll).

The truth:

I say — and so does the neuroscience research —that as you get older, you have the capacity for more wisdom, more leadership, and even more value to contribute to your beloved people, places and causes.

**But why now?**

Why is midlife such a prime time

to make a leadership pivot?

It all comes down to something you can leverage for

your next 40 years that you didn’t have in your previous 40 years:

Crystallized Intelligence.

The simple textbook definition:

Crystallized intelligence is a unique type of intelligence that is the result of accumulated knowledge and experience over a span of time.

By contrast...

Fluid intelligence—

which you leveraged in your 20s and 30s — is all about learning, creating, solving, and processing in real-time.

Simply put:

The biggest edge a 20-something or

30-something has is

ideation,

invention,

and innovation.

Good for them.

Once you’re over 40?

Your edge:

Seeing patterns…
Educating and mentoring others…
Explaining complexity…
Leveraging wisdom and intuition…
Building teams…
Leading movements…
Becoming a valued resource to others…

Once you’re over 40?

Your edge:

Seeing patterns…
Educating and mentoring others…
Explaining complexity…
Leveraging wisdom and intuition…
Building teams…
Leading movements…
Becoming a valued resource to others…

Crystallized Intelligence

Someone in their 20s or 30s hasn’t developed it yet.

They can’t imitate it or duplicate it. It’s unavailable to them.

But once you hit 40 and beyond?

The magic of crystallized intelligence unlocks.

It’s THE thing you can uniquely leverage.

How will you use your newfound gift?

Here’s the reality:

At the beginning of your career…

You followed the well-worn path of college, career, marriage, and mortgage…

Full of idealism and optimism (and energy!)…

Ready to jump into the trenches, solve all the problems, and build all the things…

Fast-forward to today…

You’ve experienced life’s successes and failures…

Maybe your idealism has morphed into realism…

And you might still be optimistic…

But that in-the-trenches energy and passion has faded a bit…

(Or a lot…)

It’s like the chewing gum has lost its flavor. Sigh.

And you know you don’t want to just sit around, waiting for life to happen…

Living in soul-sucking status quo comfort…

BUT you’re not sure what the next step should be…

Maybe you’re distracted by the fast pace of your day-to-day…

But when your head hits the pillow, there’s that moment before you fall asleep where you think:

“Is this it? Is my best work really behind me? Am I just biding time until retirement?”

If that sounds like you, we’ve got you.

We get why you might feel that way.

BUT it doesn't have to stay that way.

Inside Third Line Mastermind, we’re helping midlife professionals consciously renew their sense of purpose, even pivot in a new direction, all while reaching their next potential, leveraging the unique edge they have in this new season of life.

Truly, your best work isn’t behind you…

It’s right in front of you.

And I’m here to help midlife professionals like you — Change Makers, Practical Visionaries, and Lifelong Learners!

Who am I?

Hi! I’m Janet Macaluso,

creator of Third Line Mastermind.

Leveraging nearly 30 years of experience in global leadership and learning, I’ve developed this program specifically for women and men over 40 who are ready to step into the next best season of life, step up to their full potential, and step forward as a strong leader.

I’m not here to guide you — I’m here to help transform you, so you can see the outdated patterns that no longer serve you!

I believe it’s not just ideal, but imperative that midlife professionals consciously renew and refresh their focus and purpose once they’re over the age of 40.

Most importantly: Your “purpose” won’t simply fall into your lap.

Instead, I walk you through a proprietary process to get you there.

Consider me and my work your fulfillment fast-track, your purpose sherpa, your coach — your resource.

How's this different?

Without a doubt, there’s no shortage of programs

out there on personal and leadership development…

And I’m sure I’m not the first person suggesting to leverage your wisdom

and experience to reach your fullest potential. Of course.

BUT here’s how my unique approach — Living Leadership

Development — differs from a more traditional development model.

“Ok, but about that 13-year Harvard study?”

Third Line Mastermind is — in large part — based on a 13-year multidisciplinary study conducted by Harvard across the education, management, and psychology departments.

The subjects of the study were challenging cases like alcoholics, smokers, prisoners, and more — individuals who needed to pivot into a new purpose and transform themselves.

In the study, the subjects went through a unique process — the same one I teach in Third Line Mastermind — to help them break negative patterns, adopt new perspectives, and achieve life-changing transformations.

So when I say this program works, I say it with confidence — and with over a decade of data in my corner.

If that same process from that 13-year study helped those people, imagine how much it can help you transform yourself as you approach this next, exciting chapter in your life?

But of course, this process is just part of what you get when you join us in Third Line Mastermind!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a career course to help you find a new or better job?

While a delightful side effect of this program could be that you find a new or better job, that's not the main focus.

I Instead, we’re here to help you step into your full potential and purpose. If the result of that is a new or better job, great! If not, you’ll still find transformational value in this program because it's about developing yourself as a leader — both of yourself and others.

Will this program help me earn more money?

Again, while this might be a delightful side effect, the goal of Third Line Mastermind isn't necessarily to help you make more money. But of course, we often find that when people implement what we teach them, they are stepping into roles that are better suited for them, and often, the consequence of that is more earning power.

But with this program, your rewards can encompass everything from monetary to even spiritual fulfillment!

What is the program format?

This program has been designed with a mix of live, online Zoom calls, and a library with pre-recorded segments to deepen your understanding in the form of articles, videos, slides and templates. We also include interactive masterclasses on key personal and leadership topics. This is a holistic approach that will cover habits and health as well as leadership and learning.

I’m an introvert and I’ve always shied away from leadership roles. Will this still help me?

Contrary to what you might believe, introverts make some of the best leaders! So if you’ve shied away from leadership roles before, I would say it's time to stop counting yourself out. If anything, because you’ve spent more of your time listening, you have even more crystallized intelligence and are even more empowered to step into your full potential.

And as for the actual program itself, you'll find that you'll be well suited for Third Line Mastermind as much of the work we do is self-reflective.

I’m already in a leadership position. Will this program still be beneficial for me?

Great! You will still find tremendous value from Third Line Mastermind, because even if you might not be changing your position, we can certainly help you change your perspective, reignite your passion, and refocus your energy. And considering this program includes a proprietary process taught in a successful 13-year-old study conducted by Harvard, you can feel confident that you'll have plenty to learn from the program.

I’m not quite 40. Is this program still beneficial for me?

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit. Autem dolore, alias, numquam enim ab voluptate id quam harum ducimus cupiditate similique quisquam et deserunt, recusandae.

I don’t consider myself very woo woo or spiritual. Will I still find this program beneficial?

While we do focus on you as an individual with a mind, body, and spirit, if spiritual stuff isn't your thing, you won't feel excluded from the power of this program.

That said, dipping your toe into the spiritual side of things can do wonders for helping you realign (even realize) your values, find your purpose in this next chapter of life, and unlock your fullest potential. So, you might surprise yourself!
