Podcast #159 – Marc Interviews Alexandra Gordon, owner of HouseSitMexico.com, who is a 2nd Chance Entrepreneur in the 2nd Half of Life
Description: 
Alexandra Gordon is the owner of HouseSitMexico.com. Alexandra retired with her husband 10 years ago in Mexico, but a few years ago she had the opportunity to buy the domain “housesitMexico.com” and is now working on turning it into a thriving business. It is a fascinating story of someone in the 2nd half of life turning on their entrepreneurial juices.
Key Takeaways:
Repurpose Your Career: A Practical Guide for the 2nd Half of Life, 3rd edition is available on Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, Powells.com, BooksaMillion.com, and many other fine online retailers. I am working on the audio version of the book but this is taking longer than planned. Look for this to be out in February of 2020.
Please note that this episode will sound a little different than previous episodes. We recorded this session in Alexandra’s living room on my Zoom H4N audio recorder. This is one of my few in-person interviews.
Next week, I will be interviewing Brenda Bernstein, author of the best selling LinkedIn book How to Write a Killer LinkedIn Profile.

As a retired professional Real Estate Executive, I joined House Sit Mexico to travel and enjoy the culture, people and cities of Mexico.
Alexandra and her husband have done a professional job in creating a business that has kept me busy with awesome house sits throughout Mexico. I’ve made many new friends with homeowners inviting me back each year to look after their home and pets while on vacation.
