¿Qué quieres ser de mayor?

I’ll admit I approached this audiobook with skepticism—another ‘find your purpose’ manifesto? But Estupinyà’s mix of self-deprecating wit and hard data won me over by chapter three. Roger Vidal’s narration deserves special praise: his delivery of phrases like ‘the tyranny of the shoulds’ was so perfectly timed I replayed that segment just to savor the delivery. The book’s strength is its refusal to romanticize change; Estupinyà’s own midlife upheaval (detailed with brutal honesty) frames aging not as a decline but as a series of ‘unexpected upgrades.’ That said, the chapter on ‘silver foxes’ veered into corporate-speak territory, and the production occasionally overuses dramatic pauses in quieter sections, which feels more like a podcast than a polished audiobook. Still, Vidal’s performance elevates the material beyond what the text alone delivers—he makes even the densest neuroscience passages feel urgent, like you’re eavesdropping on a private epiphany. My only other critique? The book’s focus on Western perspectives sometimes feels myopic; a broader cultural lens would have strengthened its arguments. Ultimately, this is the audiobook equivalent of a really good therapist—challenging, validating, and just annoying enough to make you think.
