Firing The Man

Legacy: Your Entrepreneurial Endgame with Angelina Carleton


Listen Later

What will you leave behind when your entrepreneurial journey ends? It's a question few business owners ask themselves early enough—but one that can transform how you build, grow, and eventually transition your company.

In this profound conversation with legacy planner Angelina Carleton, we explore the crucial distinction between simply building wealth and creating a meaningful, enduring legacy. Angelina shares how her observations of successful real estate entrepreneurs who lacked long-term planning led her to pioneer a specialized coaching practice helping leaders craft legacies that reflect their values and vision.

The discussion delves into practical strategies entrepreneurs can implement today, regardless of where they are in their business journey. From adopting a "100-year plan" to identifying core values that guide decision-making, Angelina offers a roadmap for thinking beyond quarterly profits. She explains how legacy planning influences everything from business structure to succession planning, highlighting how legal instruments like trusts can protect what you've built while supporting your broader impact goals.

Perhaps most valuable are the mindset shifts Angelina describes—moving from success to significance, from control to stewardship, and from outcome-focused to principle-driven leadership. Through examples of successful multi-generational family businesses worldwide, she demonstrates that lasting impact isn't reserved for the ultra-wealthy but is accessible to entrepreneurs at any level who approach their work with intention.

Ready to start thinking about your legacy? Angelina concludes with three actionable steps anyone can take today: define your legacy vision (perhaps by writing your own obituary), document and live your values, and invest in your personal development. These foundational practices can transform not just your business's future but your understanding of entrepreneurial success itself.
