Second Chances: Reclaiming Yourself After Toxic Workplaces, Broken Systems, and Survival Mode
You don’t walk away from a life overnight.
You become someone capable of leaving over time.
Second Chances is not a career advice book.
It’s a reckoning.
Through deeply honest storytelling, Michelle Chase traces the quiet unraveling that happens when capable, driven women spend years surviving environments that were never built to support them. Toxic workplaces. Misaligned leadership. Roles that reward endurance over humanity.
This book is for the woman who
Done everything “right” and still felt wrong
Confused loyalty with self-abandonment
Wondered if she was the problem
Felt the pull toward something more, but didn’t know how to name it
Second Chances is about reclaiming your voice, your body, your clarity, and your agency, without burning everything down or proving anything to anyone.
It’s about understanding
You’re not broken, you adapted
You don’t need permission to want more
And starting over doesn’t mean starting from scratch
Whether this is your second chance, third, or fourth, this book is a reminder that it’s not too late to choose yourself.
The moment you stop building someone else’s dream, the path toward your own begins to light up.
