Book review thanks to Author Elizabeth White




I was not able to post all the book testimonials that came in earlier.  One that I am very grateful for is from Elizabeth White, author of 55, Underemployed, and Faking Normal.  I highly recommend Elizabeth's great book.  Also, check out Elizabeth's great Ted talk.

 Elizabeth speaks truth about the ‘new normal’ countless millions of people in the second half of life will be facing as we emerge from this mess.  Ageless Startup is one pathway out of this situation, and one that people can launch from wherever circumstances people find themselves in.  Below is Elizabeth’s great review, for which I am most thankful!

"I love, love, love Rick Terrien’s myth-busting book Ageless Startup where research shows that it’s the 50-year-old, not the 20-year-old, who is more likely to start a successful business. Ageless Startup puts entrepreneurship back on the table as a potential income opportunity for older adults. It is a must-read, offering step-by-step guidance on how to start and grow your own business."

--- Elizabeth White, author of 55, Underemployed, and Faking Normal

New podcast interview - Humanitarian Entrepreneur

Image
I had a great conversation recently with Tiffany Moore at The Humanitarian Entrepreneur podcast. Among other things, we focused on opportunities for older entrepreneurs (3:27), what are the biggest myths that entrepreneurs face in the second half of their lives (5:04), the Center for Ageless Entrepreneurs, and the importance of teams. (12:18) Among my favorite takeaways was this: "We work in teams now and those with the best teams win. The idea is ot get yourself armored up so you can protect yourself and your family as you run your business. Then get into a team. That's why we're building these networks." - Rick (11:20) Thanks Tiffany for a great conversation! Link to the full podcast is here: PODCAST LINK Tiffany Moore is a Humanitarian Entrepreneur Coach helping activists looking to leverage their passion for change. Learn more HERE .

Our Ageless Startup

Image
Hi. The evolution of ideas surrounding work life in the second half of life has been significant. I started writing my blog - Sustainable Work - in 2005. From that start I wrote most of the book Ageless Startup in 2018-19. Ageless Startup was published by Entrepreneur Press in 2020 - in the same month the COVID-19 pandemic was declared in the U.S. For those of us working in or building one-person enterprises, the economic turbulance of the past few years supports our position. I'm going to use the next batch of posts to capture individual reviews and interviews that I want to be able to reference later. Thanks for following along.
