This candid and eye-opening episode dives deep into the emotional aftermath of selling a business. My guest, entrepreneur, Stuart Wolff knows firsthand the rollercoaster of emotions that comes with selling a successful business.
In 2013, Stu sold the company he founded, The Wolff Group – a sales and marketing agency for food manufacturers that had operations in 10 U.S. states and was doing a billion dollars in annual revenue when he and his partner sold.
With raw and honest insights, Stu reveals his personal experience of post-sale reality, from the elation of transformational wealth to the profound sense of loss and identity crisis that often follows.
Today, a business coach to entrepreneurs and Chair of a Tiger 21 Group in the Detroit area, Stu shares a depth-of-knowledge and observations he has gathered about the unspoken truths of post-sale life for founders and their families.
We talk about the strain the post-sale reality can put on friendships and marriages – and he shares valuable advice for anyone considering selling their business or supporting someone who has.
Whether you're an entrepreneur, advisor, or simply curious about the emotional realities of selling a business, this episode is a must-listen.
