As we age, we often feel like the clock starts ticking on our careers. But there are ways to sustain -- and even gain -- excellence over time. Meet a musician whose career ended too soon, and an entrepreneur and a social media star who defied the stereotypes on professional decline. They illuminate steps that fuel great second and third acts. (Audio only)
