Think you're too old, too behind on tech, or too overwhelmed to start a business? In this episode, Camille tackles those fears with real talk and actionable advice. Whether you're 50, 60, or even 80, it’s not too late to start something new—especially if that “something” is a business that fits your lifestyle and future goals.

Camille also shares a powerful free training called The Rise of the Digital CEO by her longtime mentor James Wedmore. This 3-part series walks you through how to stop spinning your wheels and start building a business with clarity, confidence, and a solid plan.

You’ll learn:

  • Why starting a business later in life can actually be your superpower
  • The truth about “tech overwhelm” and why you know more than you think
  • Why AI is your new best friend (and not as scary as it sounds)
  • How to build a simple, low-cost business that fits your energy, time, and budget
  • What you’ll get inside the free Digital CEO training—and how to join

Some Key Takeaways:

  1. Age Is Not the Problem—Your Mindset Might Be
    Your experience is an asset. Nearly 25% of new businesses in 2021 were started by people aged 55–64 (Kauffman Foundation).
  2. You Know More Tech Than You Think
    If you can stream Netflix, use online banking, or listen to this podcast—you’ve already got transferable tech skills.
  3. Overwhelm Comes from Too Many Choices, Not from You
    Simple is better. Go with an all-in-one platform, skip the bells and whistles, and build from there.
  4. You Don’t Need to Be an AI Expert to Use It Well
    AI tools like ChatGPT and Perplexity are easy to learn—and can fast-track your content, offers, and marketing.
  5. Online Businesses Have Lower Costs and Higher Potential
    Skip the storefront. A digital business lets you work from anywhere, sell anytime, and scale without inventory or overhead.

🎯 Ready to stop wondering if it’s too late—and start taking action?
