Interrupted: Act 2 Reinventing Your Legacy
Reinvent Act 2 Life after 60 Are you feeling like a “has been?” You missed all the knocks of opportunity and there are none left? You missed the boat, didn’t do the thing and now it is too late? Do you wonder if people will remember you and your legacy? You know you are called to write that book, create that podcast but.. You hate the sound of your voice!! Everybody does at first. Who will listen? Read? Not your problem, if you are called to share your job is to share. I am not tech savvy! We all know someone younger who can help us out. It’s called reverse mentoring. Do you have regrets now? Let’s not take them to the grave. You are brave enough to do that thing, live that dream, it’s not too late!! 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. If not now, when? If not you, who? If not this, what? What if these brave souls who have shared their heart and their story said NO rather than yes? Do you wish they had a book if they don’t already? Would you read/listen to it? You are just like them. You have a story and it is the answer to someones prayer. You are not alone Leaving a Legacy class is a community and support system along with a formula, training and guidance in launching and publishing. www.coachlaurie.com Coach Laurie www.coachlaurie.com lacoach@comcast.net Insta: @didnotseethatcoming https://www.facebook.com/search/top?q=coach%20laurie www.didnotseethatcoming.com

Kirstin is a serial entrepreneur.
She started her first business in college, building multiple 6- and 7-figure businesses brick-and-mortar as well as online virtual companies. She is active in business consulting, sales, health coaching, restaurants, and professional speaking, to name a few.
She is also a holistic practitioner littered with certifications in neuroresilience, nutrition, and emotional wellness. She became a practitioner because she needed a solution to heal from two autoimmune conditions - which she did.
So she not only understands what it takes to be a successful business owner, but also understand what it’s like when your body stops you in your tracks because you are grinding, forcing, and not being authentic to yourself.
There is also the psychological components to becoming successful and what is needed to avoid burnout.
What I learned over the past 30+ years, running companies, working with top executives, serving on national boards, and speaking all over the country to business owners and entrepreneurs is this: you cannot build a successful business without being effective at selling. Period.
And no matter the industry or business, there’s a basic process that is important to understand when it comes to sales - and much of it probably goes against everything you’ve ever heard about being successful.
Selling should feel fluid, simple, and easy.
If it doesn’t, then you need a better way.
