Lead Like Lasso: Exit Strategy to Career Coach App with Nick and Marnie
What if a volleyball chat sparked a software company, award‑winning books, and the blueprint for your own escape from burnout?
In this episode, former teacher Marnie Stockman and lifelong programmer Nick Coniglio share how a casual conversation across a volleyball net led to a niche software platform, a successful exit, and a whole new chapter as leadership authors.
You’ll hear how they went from misaligned culture and burnout in a huge edtech company to building, selling, and reinventing again with a career-coaching app designed for the next generation in your pocket.
If you’re feeling burned out at work or stuck in a W‑2 role and wondering if you could ever start a business, their story will give you real‑world insight on setting an exit horizon, working two jobs, building resilience, and using storytelling to open doors—whether you’re a teacher, IT pro, or corporate leader.
Join me, LeAnn Lyon, on Beyond the Business Plan as we explore how you can grow and go beyond your current business plan in a way that feels joyful and sustainable.
