From James Hollis, author of Second Chances, Real Stories (The Second Chances Series, Book 1)

You have spent decades building someone else's dream. What if you started building your own?

SECOND CHANCES, REAL STORIES: STARTING A BUSINESS AFTER 50 brings you real stories from real people who launched successful businesses after 50. Not tech prodigies. Not trust fund kids. Regular people who started late and won.

Inside you will discover:

• The corporate executive who opened a bakery at 55
• The laid-off manager who never went back to corporate
• The teacher who built a six-figure Etsy shop at 62
• The nurse who founded a healthcare startup at 58
• The empty nester who turned her garden into a business
• The retiree who bought a franchise at 65
• The artist who started selling her work at 70

This is not a get-rich-quick guide. It is a collection of proof that it is never too late to build something of your own.

Whether you are facing a layoff, an empty nest, or simply a dream that will not let go, these stories will show you what is possible.

Because the best time to start your business was twenty years ago. The second-best time is now.
