Empower & Transform: How to Shift Your Mindset, Trust the Universe, and Thrive as an Entrepreneur at Any Age
ByPublisher Description
Empower & Transform is a compassionate, practical guide for anyone, especially readers 50 and over, who feels ready to rewrite their story and build a business with purpose. Blending mindset coaching, soulful alignment, and step-by-step strategy, it shows you how to move from fear and scarcity to clarity, confidence, and action. You'll learn to reframe limiting beliefs, remember the strengths your life has already forged, and cultivate daily habits that keep you grounded and forward-focused.
Part I helps you dismantle the illusion of "too late" and adopt a growth mindset that treats setbacks as feedback. Part II goes deeper into healing and alignment, with simple rituals, moon-phase reflections, meditations, and sacred affirmations that restore self-trust and invite synchronicity. Part III turns inspiration into execution: identify your unique value, validate ideas quickly, choose low-cost business models, build a lean plan, set goals and budgets, manage time, and make your first sales with integrity. It also includes dedicated guidance for single mothers, people with disabilities, military veterans, and returning citizens with a criminal history, each section offering tailored advice, affirmations, and real success stories that prove what's possible. Part IV shows how to sustain momentum amid family and financial pressures by protecting your energy, building a support network, and celebrating wins while you recalibrate goals.
Throughout, you'll find "Action Breaks," pull-quotes, checklists, and worksheets that turn insight into progress the same day you read them. By the end, you'll have a clear, heart-aligned plan to launch or grow a business trial, a toolkit for resilient thinking, and trust practices that keep you in flow. Warm, encouraging, and relentlessly actionable, Empower & Transform affirms a simple truth: your experience is your edge, your dreams are valid, and it's never too late to thrive as an entrepreneur. Your story starts now.

About Charles E. Johnson
Charles Johnson is a builder-coach with three decades in sourcing, procurement, and supplier governance, known for turning big ideas into everyday operating discipline. An inventor and systems thinker, he holds U.S. Patent No. 8,517,742 (Labor Resource Testing System and Method), awarded for technology that assesses skills and aligns talent with real-world project needs. He also serves as Chairperson & Executive Director of the C.A.S.T.N.E.T. International Chamber of Commerce, where he mobilizes global partners to open trade routes and de-risk cross-border projects, and as the founder of BidLock , a peer-to-peer source-to-pay SaaS platform designed to help small and disadvantaged businesses scale.
As an author, his writing grew out of that long arc of experience. After thirty years of wins, wipeouts, and rebuilds, professionally and personally, Charles saw the same pattern repeat: setbacks are tuition, if you know how to extract the lesson quickly and move forward with integrity. Intelligent Failure distills the frameworks he has tested under pressure: how to debrief without blame, design safe-to-fail experiments, protect what must not break, and align work with values so progress is sustainable at home and at the office. He wrote it for rising leaders and seasoned operators who are tired of perfection theater and ready for a playbook that turns inevitable missteps into momentum. In Charles's hands, failure becomes a disciplined practice, one that helps readers learn, heal, and grow into the kind of people others trust when the stakes are high.
