In Good Company Podcast

What does it take to build a business from a kitchen table, fund it by driving Uber at night, and grow it into one of Connecticut's most recognizable brands?

Brooke Goff joins In Good Company to share the story behind Goff Law Group and the lessons she's learned about leadership, resilience, marketing, and entrepreneurship along the way. From overcoming early obstacles to building a culture-driven organization, Brooke explains why the traits many people view as disadvantages can become powerful competitive advantages.

It's an honest conversation about betting on yourself, building differently, and staying true to who you are as your business grows.

On this episode of In Good Company, we explore what it really means to exit a business—and why the best outcomes are almost never just about valuation. Denis Horrigan and Kevin Leahy sit down with Ramsey Goodrich of Carter Morse & Goodrich to unpack the full arc of a business transition, from unsolicited offers and early curiosity to disciplined preparation, readiness, and finding the right long-term partner.

Ramsey shares why thoughtful owners start with one question—why—and shift their focus from “selling a business” to designing a transition that aligns with their goals, legacy, employees, and future involvement. The conversation highlights a consistent theme: successful outcomes are built long before a transaction begins, through clarity of purpose, intentional planning, and the right advisory team working in sync. For business owners thinking about what comes next, this episode reframes exit planning as less of a moment in time, and more of a process of preparing for the life you actually want on the other side.

In the second episode of the In Good Company podcast, hosts Denis Horrigan and Kevin Leahy of Connecticut Wealth Management (CTWM) sit down with Michelle Nicholson, founder of The Flour Girl.

From selling sourdough on her front porch to building a destination business that draws thousands, Michelle’s journey is anything but ordinary. What began as a personal challenge quickly turned into something much bigger, fueled not just by product but by the power of community.

Michelle shares the moment she realized the business had outgrown a side hustle, the creative risks that helped her scale, and how a community-first approach shaped the brand from the very beginning. It’s a conversation about entrepreneurship, adaptability, and what can happen when people rally around something meaningful.

In the very first episode of In Good Company—a podcast grounded in the belief that the best ideas don’t come from textbooks, they come from real conversations—hosts Denis Horrigan and Kevin Leahy of Connecticut Wealth Management (CTWM) sit down with longtime friend and respected business leader Chris DiPentima, President & CEO of the Connecticut Business & Industry Association (CBIA). 

Chris reflects on his path from trial attorney to second-generation manufacturing CEO, and ultimately to leading one of the most influential business organizations in the country. He shares the evolution of his family’s manufacturing business, Pegasus, including stepping into leadership without formal management experience, navigating family dynamics, scaling the company from 45 to 140 employees, and making the difficult decision to sell. 

Along the way, Chris opens up about what business owners rarely talk about: the weight of responsibility, the emotional complexity of family enterprises, and the identity shift that often follows a sale or major transition. The conversation also explores the realities business owners face today, from constant disruption and workforce constraints to leadership depth and global uncertainty. 

Throughout the episode, one theme remains clear: business ownership can be incredibly rewarding—and at times, incredibly lonely. This conversation sets the tone for In Good Company: real dialogue, shared perspective, and a reminder that you don’t have to navigate it alone.
