Preparing For Life After Your Business with Matt Michel
.jpg?width=470&height=470&name=Episode%2083%20(1).jpg)
Matt Michel joined me this week for a deep dive into the psychology of a business owner when selling their business. We spoke about the differences between owning a “job” and owning a “business”, the importance of culture both within your business and your family, and the careful balance of passing down wealth. Matt shared the ways that selling a business results in a loss of identity, and the ways that business owners can cope with the “loss” that accompanies those sales. He also spoke about his books and why it’s so important to him to write these stories down for future generations.
Tune in this week on P&L to learn how to prepare for life after your business.
