Building wealth isn’t about making more money.
It’s about designing a business that gives you freedom, options, and impact.

In this episode, Anthony Englert breaks down why your business should be treated as a wealth engine, not just a source of income and how money simply amplifies who you already are.

We explore what separates lifestyle businesses from legacy businesses, why founders burn out when everything depends on them, and how building for exit can actually create more income, clarity, and optionality today.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why money is an amplifier, not the goal
• How to shift from income thinking to building a true wealth engine
• The difference between building for income vs. building for exit
• Why burnout is often a design problem, not a motivation problem
• How staying in your zone of genius increases both impact and wealth
• Why more money doesn’t automatically create happiness or fulfillment
• How early money stories influence entrepreneurial decisions
• What it really means to build wealth that supports your next chapter

This conversation is for founders who want to build real wealth with intention, and create a legacy that extends far beyond their business.

Building a business is hard.

Keeping your health intact while doing it is even harder.

In this episode of Legacy Branding, Steve Adams gets candid about the real risk founders face before and after an exit, and it’s not financial.

After decades of high-pressure leadership, multiple successful exits, and relentless performance, Steve hit a wall. He wasn’t “sick,” but his body was breaking down. That wake-up call led him to redefine success, rebuild his health from the cellular level, and ultimately found Tiger Medical Institute, a personalized medicine company helping founders over 45 restore energy, clarity, and control.

This conversation goes beyond health advice. It’s about what happens when success outpaces sustainability, and how founders can design a next chapter that includes vitality, purpose, and presence.

You’ll learn:

• Why the real risk after an exit isn’t financial, it’s your health.

• The gap between lifespan and healthspan most founders ignore.

• Why “not sick” doesn’t mean you’re actually well.

• How burnout and stress show up after the deal closes.

• Why losing purpose accelerates decline.

• How redefining success beyond money protects your legacy.

This is a grounded, eye-opening conversation for founders who want to enjoy what they’ve built, and stay healthy enough to live their next chapter on their own terms.

Everyone talks about selling a business.
No one talks about what happens after.

Adam Miller lived the dream exit…

until he found out his company was about to be shut down.
That same night, he started the process of buying it back.

This episode is a raw, honest look at the emotional and strategic rollercoaster behind selling, and reclaiming, the business you built from nothing.

You’ll learn:

• Why a “successful exit” can break your identity more than build it.
• The red flags in investors and private equity no one warns you about.
• How to evaluate an offer beyond the money.
• What to do when your legacy is at risk.
• How to rebuild with integrity, not ego.
• And the uncomfortable truth: selling won’t set you free… if you don’t know who you are after the exit.

A must-listen for founders in transition, ambitious leaders, and anyone building, or protecting, a legacy that actually means something.
