Dagmar Schönleber | Finally 50! We're Not Falling Apart That Easily Anymore

Time to celebrate: after the school yard, teenage spots, and family planning, we've survived the worst - and we're still standing! Advertisers call us "Best Ager" and the world is our oyster, as long as we have the cash. Sure, many of us can't move without making some kind of noise, and some arms are just too short to read the small print - but the signposts on the road to self-fulfilment can only be read with the heart anyway, right?

But watch out: the second half of life is too precious to fritter away on cheesy calendar quotes! The clock is ticking, so when it comes to self-fulfilment, decisions need to be made fast: a master's degree, climbing Mount Everest, or a Me Time Challenge with macramé? Saving the world or a wine tasting?

And how do you hold on to your zest for life despite the obvious wear and tear? Dagmar Schönleber has the answer: luckily, in our second adolescence we have more life experience, gut feeling, and composure. We can only handle half the drinks we used to, but we carry everything with dignity - except orthopaedic shoes in beige! Blending words and music of all kinds in her own inimitable style, Schönleber mixes wit with silliness, connects with her audience, and balances warmth with humour - declaring: life after 50 is absolutely doable, because from now on we are the gold standard!
