Reinvent Act 2 Life after 60

Are you feeling like a “has been?” Like all the life fulfilling things are behind you and you are missing out?
Do you wonder if people will remember you and your legacy?
Are you afraid you missed the boat and have some regrets? Wishing you were brave enough to do that thing, live that dream but now it is just too late? You are too old?
Good news!! Hi there, I’m Laurie and I felt the same way! It seemed like life was passing me by as I was a single mom raising three kids on my own. Making decisions that where good for the family but not in line with the dreams I held. Doing what was right to support them. I struggled with depression and feeling like my “good life” was over. I was over 50 when my youngest graduated high school and I thought I missed out on everything. Now what? I re invented my dream, told a friend and started walking in the direction I was terrified of and boy, did I get a lot of nos. I persevered and you can too.
I persevered because I listened to people who had overcome challenges, rediscovered their purpose, found fulfillment after 60, started over, created their Act 2, embraced change and new beginnings. Thank you to those who were brave enough to share so we would have hope and believe in a possible future filled with joy. You will even hear some brave souls get coached into their Act 2.
Grab your coffee or tea and that beautiful journal you just bought to secretly think about your dreams and get ready to go for a ride. I am talking with lots of people just like you who in their second act of life made big changes reinvented themselves creating a life they love. It is so do able and they are going to share how they did it. I just know you are going to be encouraged and maybe even come up with a plan for your Act 2.

    55|Your Home For God Creating an Email List with Wendy Gunn

    55|Your Home For God Creating an Email List with Wendy Gunn

    Wendy Gunn is a female entrepreneur who has succeeded in discovering her identity and her passion–communicating to you that God uniquely created you for a purpose and helping you find and fulfill that purpose. That passion is the foundation for her Simple 3-Step System to build a thriving email list full of raving fans, called Launch Your List Live, which is the exact system she used to grow her thriving email list fast. But, she hasn’t always felt confident, sure of her identity, ad walking in her passion, fulfilling her purpose.
    Her journey started years ago when she felt "not enough,” inferior, “less than,” and was severely obese, busy copying her friends, taking bits and pieces of their stories, and trying to make them her own. She was copying, comparing, competing, and coveting. Then, one day, she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer, and knew her story was forever changed. Diagnosed with two football-sized tumors, three days later, the surgeon found only one (still football-sized) tumor. It was caught early. Ovarian cancer usually kills because it’s almost never caught early. She knew she was a walking miracle. 
    This trial and tragedy transformed her. Over the years, she’s realized we are transformed more through our trials than our triumphs. She began setting and achieving big goals, starting with losing 50 lbs. the next year as she determined to become healthier. That was like the first domino that sent the rest falling. She thought, “If I can do that, I can do anything.” 
    She’s set and achieved many big goals–becoming organized, successfully raising children to become Godly adults who they are proud of, building a 45-year marriage with a husband who is her polar opposite, and Homeschooling their children from start to finish. But some of the biggest goals achieved were after the age of 60, and she loves encouraging you to believe in yourself, no matter your age or circumstances, and achieve your big goals. 
    After the age of 60, she lost another 50 lbs, took her whole family (her husband, grown son, grown daughter, and son-in-law) on a dream trip to Italy with saved miles, started an online business, and grew her email list from zero to 12K in just over 2 years with a remarkable 37% open rate. 
    She helps you, as an entrepreneur, realize how amazing you are, identify your passion and your ideal client to work with, and recognize the unique solution you have to help them. You can then set up an automated email list that brings in a stream of raving fans and makes sales while you sleep, so you can make a life you love, not just a living.

    54|Forgiveness is within Reach with Brenda Reiss

    54|Forgiveness is within Reach with Brenda Reiss

    Brenda Reiss is often asked why guiding women through forgiveness coaching is so important. The answer is simple. The person she is today is a direct result of self-forgiveness and finding the strength to reclaim her life.
    Brenda's story is a testament to the power we have over our own lives if we just take the time to be curious about what is possible and what is holding us back from being the person we are meant to be.
    Self-forgiveness helped her transform out of victimhood and step into the life she was meant to live. This experience has given her the unique ability to guide others who are searching for the same transformation to forgive yourself.
