What if the secret to building a thriving business and a fulfilling life isn’t either/or, but both?

This week, I’m joined by Ellen Long, founder of Build, Prove, Sell, and someone I’d absolutely call a “dream achiever” for entrepreneurs. Ellen doesn’t just help founders sell their businesses, she helps them design companies that are profitable, scalable, and aligned with the life they actually want to live.

In this rich and energizing conversation, we unpack the often-missed pieces of building a business with a powerful exit strategy in mind and why it starts with your leadership, your vision, and your energy.

You’ll hear:

✨ The two biggest factors that make a business truly sellable
 ✨ What strategic buyers are really looking for, and how to position your company to attract them
 ✨ Why burnout is one of the biggest threats to your business (and what to do about it)
 ✨ How Ellen helps founders rediscover joy in their companies by shifting into their “unique ability”
 ✨ What it means to craft a business story and a life story, and how the two work in harmony

Whether you’re building with an exit in mind or just trying to scale in a way that feels sustainable, this episode is packed with perspective shifts, practical tools, and candid wisdom from someone who’s helped founders sell everything from $400K companies to $300M empires.

If you’re ready to build smarter, lead better, and create space for a life you actually love, this one’s for you.
