Second Act: Lives Beyond the Job Title

Sometimes the next level isn’t higher — it’s wider.

What if the life you worked so hard to build isn’t the final form of who you’re meant to become?

You can earn the title. Lead the team. Hit the milestone.
And still feel a quiet pull toward something more — not instead of your success, but beyond it.

Second Act is a podcast for high-performing, mid-career professionals who are expanding their identity without abandoning what they’ve built.

Each episode traces the real arc of a second act: the internal shift, the first imperfect move, the tradeoffs and constraints, the craft behind the work, and the tools or teams that made growth possible. We end with grounded insights for those ready to widen their own path.

This isn’t about quitting.
It’s about range.

If you’ve ever thought, “Is this it?” — this conversation is for you.

  • Why I Left Tech to Bake Cookies: From PM Leader to Food Entrepreneur

    Why I Left Tech to Bake Cookies: From PM Leader to Food Entrepreneur
    Feb 23 2026

    After years as a product leader in tech, Fabrice found himself at an unexpected crossroads: a layoff.

    Instead of searching for another tech role, he took a risk he’d quietly dreamed about for years — starting a food business centered around traditional French butter cookies.

    In this episode, we unpack:

    • How he evaluated financial and emotional risk before making the leap
    • The surprising economics of running a food business
    • Why his first product wasn’t his final product
    • The power of marketing and storytelling in building demand
    • How AI tools now power everything from operations to content
    • What it really means to “fail fast” outside of tech

    This is a story about identity, reinvention, and courage — about choosing passion without abandoning discipline.

    If you’re navigating your own second act, this conversation will resonate deeply.
