Starting a business after 50 isn’t a limitation. It might actually be your biggest advantage. In this episode, we explore the rise of "encore entrepreneurs" and why more people are choosing to start businesses later in life. Confidence, clarity, and a lifetime of skills can all become powerful foundations for entrepreneurship.
We talk about how to recognize the value of what you already know, whether it’s managing people, solving problems, or building strong relationships, and how to apply that to running a business. This stage of life can offer emotional resilience, clearer priorities, and a deep sense of purpose that many younger entrepreneurs are still developing.
If you're thinking about starting something new or already in the middle of your journey, this conversation offers insight, encouragement, and practical ideas to help you move forward with intention.
