by Shannon Russell (Author)
The ultimate guide to pivot with purpose, reinvent your career, and produce your best life.
The career that once inspired you no longer fits your life, and a nagging voice inside tells you there's something more. When your mind, heart, and dreams no longer align with your current path, it's time to start your second act.
Shannon Russell, a former TV producer turned entrepreneur and career/business coach, understands the fears and challenges of disrupting your carefully planned career and taking the leap into something more. Drawing on her personal experiences and the success stories of other women, she shares her proven three-step Second Act Strategy (reflect, research, realize) to guide you from where you are now to where you want to be.

With practical exercises, the powerful YouMap assessment, and self-empowerment insights, this book helps you reimagine your career and build a second act that works for both you and your family.
