In this episode of The Mark Haney Show, I sit down with Sheila Carroll, Founder and Managing Attorney at Carroll & Associates and a multi-year Super Lawyer. Sheila shares critical legal insights for entrepreneurs—covering the biggest startup mistakes around equity, employees, and intellectual property.

You’ll learn:
• Why you should treat equity like gold, not candy
• How to protect your IP from day one
• Legal pitfalls around employment classification
• What it means to have an "on-call attorney" in your corner
• And how to avoid business divorces before they start

Sheila also talks about her journey from greenhouse entrepreneur to courtroom advocate, and how Entrepreneurs' Organization (EO) has shaped her as a leader.
