Before you invest in a franchise, there are two conversations you have to get right: the one with your spouse and the one with yourself. In this episode, we talk openly about what most people avoid: How to get your spouse on board (and what happens if they’re not), what profit potential really means (and what it doesn’t), and how to evaluate if franchising is right for your family and your future. Whether you’re just starting to explore franchises or you’re already deep in research, this conversation will give you clarity, strategy, and a real-world gut check.

You’ll learn what franchisors expect from new owners and the mindset shift required if you want real freedom down the line. If you're thinking about investing in a franchise with minimal involvement, this conversation will save you time, money, and frustration.
