Publisher's Synopsis

Emmy winner Patricia Heaton is best known for her roles on long-running comedy Everybody Loves Raymond and on the popular sitcom The Middle. She now returns to television as the lead in Carol's Second Act, playing divorced fifty-year-old Carol Kenney who after raising two children and retiring as a teacher decides to finally pursue her dream of becoming a doctor.

Just like Carol, when Heaton's children left the nest, she found herself in a new and unfamiliar stage of life, compelling her to evaluate which direction to take next. She now has time to pursue passions previously placed on hold, both personally and professionally. She took a step forward in her career and is not only the star of her own show, but also the executive producer. She also finds fulfilment using her influence to support humanitarian efforts as a Celebrity Ambassador for World Vision.

Filled with light-hearted anecdotes and steps to help you discover your own path, Your Second Act shows us that midlife doesn't have to be about crisis when you focus on the opportunity. After all, it's never too late, or too early to stage your second act!
