A short YouTube monologue in which the speaker reflects on the personal aftermath of selling a company. The speaker advises slowing down after an exit, reinvesting in family and spirituality, and warns that rushing into new ventures can fracture relationships — noting their own experience with divorce and rebuilding family life post-sale.
And some of them that do sell their companies within the ecosystem, I proactively call them and ask them if I could have lunch with them, go sit and talk with about what is about to happen for them once they've sold. I think I should have like slowed down, I should have calmed down. I should have taken a deep pause. I should have reinvested back into family and back into spirituality and back into like grounding myself as opposed to feeling like I had to rush out and do the next big thing. So that's also a period of time where I, you know, became divorced and my family became fractured and I've had to spend a lot of time trying to rebuild that back together post that period of time. So I really sit down and talk with those entrepreneurs and ask them like what is it that they really want now and what do they want from the rest of their life and is it just to go chase more cash and chase more business or is it something different?
