From Grind to Greatness: Redefining Success & Exit Strategy with Stephanie Hayes
In this thought-provoking episode of Mind Over Masculinity, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Stephanie Hayes, to challenge the hustle-fueled mindset many entrepreneurs—especially men—cling to. Together, they unpack the hidden mental toll of equating self-worth with productivity and explore how business owners can build companies that serve them, not enslave them. Stephanie shares her insights on asset-based business design, shifting from income to wealth, and why emotional readiness is just as critical as financial readiness when planning your exit.
About the Guest:
Stephanie Hayes is a strategic business advisor and the founder of Assets to Exit, where she helps entrepreneurs turn their revenue-driven businesses into valuable, sellable assets. With deep expertise in operational design and post-exit planning, Stephanie equips business owners to create wealth and freedom on their own terms. She’s on a mission to demystify the exit strategy conversation and normalize legacy-building for small business owners.
Key Takeaways:
Most entrepreneurs delay exit planning because they don’t believe it’s for them. That’s a myth.
Burnout often stems from lack of vision, not just overwork. A long-term strategy restores energy and focus.
Masculine energy dominates traditional business culture, but integrating feminine energy like empathy and intuition leads to more balanced leadership.
Revenue ≠ wealth. Building an asset-focused business helps create financial freedom and long-term peace of mind.
Personal brands can be sold—with the right strategy and time. Start neutralizing the business from the founder early.
Asking “What do I want?” is the first powerful step toward designing an exit that aligns with your life and values.
