I share my personal story of buying my family business and how it shaped my career. From my humble beginnings to where we are today, I walk you through the steps I took to navigate this major life and career transition.
Family and business can be a challenging mix, and the emotions tied to such a transaction are often just as complex as the financials. I open up about how I approached these dynamics, how I balanced respect for family relationships with the need to establish my own vision, and the valuable lessons I learned along the way.
You’ll hear about the practical side of the transaction — the negotiations, planning, and execution — as well as the emotional hurdles I faced. I also share what I wish I had done differently and the advice I’d give anyone looking to step into a similar situation.
Whether you’re considering taking over a family business, in the midst of such a transition, or just curious about the behind-the-scenes reality of entrepreneurship in a family setting, this episode is packed with raw insights, practical advice, and inspiration for your own journey.
Tune in to Episode 49 of The Six Figure Exit and learn how I turned a family legacy into a thriving enterprise — and how you can do it, too.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
