Started over. Built bigger.
with Veronica Wilen
Every year, women arrive in this country with a suitcase and a plan. Some of them build businesses. This show sits down with the ones who did.
Jacksonville's growth economy is partly built by people who were not born here. The women among them faced the steepest climb: credentials that did not transfer, no network, no credit history, a new language, new rules. Every episode is one woman's full journey, from the decision to leave to the business that exists today.
Every episode, three acts
What she left, what it cost, and the moment she decided.
The years nobody saw. New systems, new language, no shortcuts.
What exists now, and what she would tell the woman boarding the plane today.
