For 20 years, Joel built and nurtured a successful TV production company. A healthy, home-owning family man in a happy marriage and career, he felt fulfilled. Then, the television industry changed, leaving him, and his company, out of work. Ensuing debt, stress, and health issues left Joel forced to confront big questions of change. But, he knew he wasn’t alone. Americans in their midlife are experiencing discontent like never before. Second Start explores fascinating moments of difficult change in the lives of mature adults, with host and producer Joel Olicker narrating his own experience charting a new path forward in real time, and interviewing others confronting the big question of “What now?”
