Finding Your Flawsome with Laura Schiller

The entrepreneurship media is obsessed with youth, venture capital, and scale-at-all-costs mentality. Meanwhile, women over 45 represent one of the fastest-growing entrepreneurial demographics, yet their stories are largely invisible in mainstream business content.
These women aren't starting from zero. They're translating institutional credibility into personal authority, corporate networks into customer bases, and executive decision-making skills into business strategy. Their path to entrepreneurship looks completely different from the typical startup narrative and it's often more sustainable.

We highlight:

The strategic thinking that made them successful executives now applied to their own venture
How they identified problems worth solving
The way they bootstrap intelligently 
Their approach to building authority
The reality of balancing financial security with creative fulfillment

Every story we share proves that corporate experience isn't something to overcome in entrepreneurship, it's a competitive advantage. When midlife women see others who've successfully made the transition, it shifts their hopes from "impossible dream" to "strategic next step."

We're not just inspiring individual women to start businesses. 
We're documenting a fundamental shift in how expertise and authority operate in the modern economy.
