From Halfway to Legacy

Letters About What Really Matters

De: David Ray

Narrado por: Ross Blilie

At fifty and beyond, life doesn’t end—it shifts. In From Halfway to Legacy: Letters About What Really Matters, bestselling author of Halfway There continues the conversation with men who feel weary, restless, or uncertain about what’s next. Through honest, heartfelt letters, he speaks to the struggles of midlife—regret, faith, family, loneliness, and purpose—while offering hope, wisdom, and courage for the years ahead.

This is not a book about decline. It’s a guide to rediscovery, a reminder that your story isn’t finished, and a call to live with impact, dignity, and legacy.

Made Me Rethink What I’m Working Toward

I picked this up during a long drive, thinking it would just be another motivational listen, but it hit closer to home than I expected. Hearing someone walk through real turning points made me pause and look at where I’m putting my time and energy. I found myself replaying a few sections later that night. The narration felt honest and kept me pulled in. If you’re reassessing your direction in life, this is a solid listen that actually sticks.

Had Me Thinking About My Own Life

I started listening on a quick trip to the store, and suddenly I was taking the long way back just to keep it going. The narrator’s voice feels super natural, almost like someone I know just talking through real moments. Some parts hit closer to home than I expected, and I caught myself pausing to think about my own choices. It’s not polished in every spot, but it felt honest, and I’m glad I stuck with it.

Made me think about my priorities differently

I listened to this during my morning walks, and it surprisingly set the tone for the rest of my day. The personal growth angle felt sincere, with moments that made me check in with myself about where I’m putting my time and energy. It didn’t try too hard to impress, which is exactly why it worked for me. I came away with a few small shifts I’m already applying in daily habits and decisions.

Hit Me at the Perfect Time in My Life

I picked this up because I’ve hit that stage where you start questioning what you’re doing and what really matters. Reading through these letters felt like talking with someone who’s been through similar highs and lows. A few parts nudged me to rethink how I’m showing up for my family and how I want to shape the next chapter of my life. It’s honest, grounding, and gave me a sense of direction I didn’t realize I needed.

A Wake Up Call I Actually Needed

This listen felt surprisingly personal. It got me thinking about the parts of my life I have kind of put on autopilot, and it pushed me in a good way to take a harder look at what I still want to do. It’s motivating without forcing anything, and it speaks to the midlife doubts most of us don’t say out loud. I ended up feeling more focused, more hopeful, and honestly more ready to make the next years count.
