Watch Second Act

Second Act is an invigorating life-transformation show aired on RLTV in 2013. It is an inspiring presentation that revolves around the concept of a personal 'second act' - a substantial life change, usually occurring in the middle or late adulthood phase when individuals redefine their lives, typically following retirement, a milestone birthday or a significant life event. The show reflects the spirit of resilience, exploration, reinvention and, primarily, the conception that it is never too late to accomplish something new.

The purpose of Second Act is to encourage viewers in the age of introspection and transformation, mainly those in their 50s, 60s, and beyond, to embrace change and establish a new fulfilling direction in life. It is targeted at a mature audience interested in rebooting their lives, exploring unfulfilled dreams and passions, starting a new career, or looking for fresh challenges post-retirement. The stories relayed on Second Act provide inspiration, direction, and motivation to the audience, urging them to reinvent their lives and pursue their long-cherished dreams.

Each episode of Second Act follows a different individual or a group of people as they embark on their post-retirement adventures. Some examples include individuals starting their own businesses after decades in the corporate world, pursuing artistic careers that were once considered a hobby, or dedicating their lives to volunteer work and community service. In each instance, the participant offers a unique narrative of their 'second act', disclosing their dreams, their challenges, the changes they made, their fears and how they overcame them, and most importantly, the triumphs and rewards that ensued.

Paul DiMeo, a charismatic and captivating presenter, is the face of Second Act. He engages with the participants on their transformative journey with empathy and encouragement, offering moral support and often providing practical advice and resources. As a talented veteran in the television industry, DiMeo is best known for his work on the Emmy Award-winning show Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. On Second Act, his genuine interest in the lives of his guests shines through, as he helps them work towards their goals and achieve their dreams.

The show is not a series of quests accomplished without setbacks or mistakes but follows a realistic approach. The participants often share the obstacles they encounter, the fears they grapple with, and the resistance or disbelief they face from family and friends. Sharing the raw and honest experiences of these individuals reinforces the idea that change is possible but it
