What happens when you finally sell the business you’ve built your whole life around?

In this episode, Rick sits down with Kyle Gabhart, author of Legends Don’t Retire and Neither Should You, to talk about life after the business, identity, purpose, succession planning, and how to build a company that thrives without you.

Whether you’re a small-business owner, entrepreneur, or advisor, this episode will help you think beyond the exit. You’ll learn how to separate your identity from your work, create systems that make your business more valuable, and find a second act that still fuels your drive, without burning you out.

Topics Covered:

• How to prepare emotionally and financially for life after business ownership

• Turning your company into a true asset, not just a job

• Designing a phased succession or “partial exit” strategy

• Creating liquidity before you sell

• Finding new purpose once you step back
