The place for GenX women starting & growing small business.
Let's face it - things are very different for us. We've lived through hard knocks and amazing experiences. We've raised our kids (who probably don't need us as much...boohoo). We remember what it was like before the internet (interoffice memo anyone?) and now we're trying to navigate social media options which grow daily. But we're also experienced, smart, driven, and not ready to consider "Shady Pines" just yet.
More and more women of our generation are starting & growing small businesses, and taking charge of our financial future. Because sadly, women of our generation are the most financially disadvantaged demographic. I created "Second Act Society" to support our unique journey with tools, resources, courses and a membership where we can keep things simple and grow with confidence.
Whether it's a side hustle, main thing or something "just for you", this is the place to start.

Proving it's never too late
I'm living proof that it's never too late to start a business, and that you can change your Iife no matter your age. I started my current business in my late 40's, leaving behind a stressful corporate career during which time I counselled hundreds of women at this stage of life on career changes.
The common denominator amongst them was a feeling of being "past it", resulting in a total lack of confidence. With women of our generation being the most financially vulnerable demographic, I believe wholeheartedly that running your own business is a way to reclaim your dreams and become financially free. And to create something to be proud of.

Real Women Shining Through
"The success or failure of a project can have much to do with confidence and Leigh’s point of difference is her ability to address our mind-set. Firstly she will give you the confidence to believe your goal is possible and then she will show you how you are going to achieve it. Leigh has devised strategies for two different businesses of mine – one was a start up and the other was an existing successful business that had lost focus and direction. If you are looking for a wholistic support for any stage of your small business – you will not find better than Leigh."
"Leigh is a go-to person if you're launching your own business. Great advice and her own lived experience. As a marketing professional and former headhunter she combines her skills and experience to encourage new direction"
