A NEW KIND OF SECOND CHANCE
What if there were Pathways to leave your 'Unlawful Lifestyle' behind... and to establish a new future as a respected 'Lawful Entrepreneur'?!
You already have productive business skills.
We equip you to apply them lawfully.
You don't need to be fixed... You need a new path forward.
On the streets, you have demonstrated entrepreneurial business skills. And you have demonstrated you have personal drive. You didn’t lose these when you entered treatment or prison… they still exist. The issue is that you didn’t have a pathway to apply them lawfully.
A New Pathway Forward.
2nd Chance Entrepreneurs™ provides you with a pathway to redirect your passions, energies, and skills from the unlawful to the lawful.
We provide pathways for men and women who are sick and tired of their unlawful lifestyle, who are ready to apply what they already know instinctively in order to build a lawful entrepreneurial venture that has meaning, purpose and can grow into something that lasts.
The energy, the passion, the boots-on-the ground work… these are yours.
The pathway and mentored guidance are supplied by us.
What You Actually Receive.
Mentorship
A mentor / coach who has built something legal and knows what it actually takes.
Curriculum
Six modules define this new pathway—what you actually need: legal setup, financing, marketing, operations…
Infrastructure
Forming an LLC, opening a bank account, building a website — the basics no one walks you through.
Peer Community
The 2nd Chance Entrepreneurship™ Peer Community provides real support, real comradery, and real belonging from those who are walking walking the same path as you.
The person behind this
Bruce ‘Captain’ Kirk has twelve (12) years experience working with men and women desperate to escape the grips of chronic drug addition. He has also spent years working with business founders, leaders, and professionals who have built successful businesses. And he has watched the recovery/reentry system overlook your entrepreneurial talents and, instead, pigeon-hole you to W-2 employment as being your only option.
He started 2nd Chance Entrepreneurs™ to give you a real and meaningful alternative… a path forward that more closely aligns with who you are..
“I started this entrepreneurial venture because of personally recognizing the talent and drive of Unlawful Entrepreneurs™. I’m on this journey because of recognizing that what has been missing is a pathway for you to apply your business talents and entrepreneurial energies legally and productively.”
— Bruce Kirk, Founder
Your results aren't guaranteed. And your success is not going to be handed to you.
This isn’t a course. It isn’t a feel-good program. It takes real, ongoing work.
What you get is a hand-up, not a hand-out—mentors who have built a lawful business, a curriculum that skips the fluff, ongoing interactions that help you to move things forward, and a peer community that understands where you’re coming from and who walks the walk with you.
You bring the work, the passion, the energy.
We lead you on the path of Lawful Entrepreneurship™.
What we promise… What we don’t promise…
We don’t promise you success.
We DO promise a solid pathway and mentored guidance as you journey toward your new future. We show up. We work next to you (but not doing the work for you). You are not starting over. You are redirecting your skills, passions, and energies to an entrepreneurial venture that’s real, exciting, lawful, and productive.
