Next Level Pros #159: How to Build a Business Without Losing the People You Love // Daryl Kelly // Next Level Podcast
Welcome to a new episode of Next Level Pros! In this episode, we dive deep into the realities of entrepreneurship and family life. Daryl Kelly is joined by his daughter Evelyn Kelly for an honest conversation about growing up in an entrepreneurial household, balancing ambition with family connection, and the lessons learned along the way. This episode is for parents chasing big goals without losing touch with what matters most, and for kids witnessing the journey up close.
Highlights:
"Being an entrepreneur isn't just about building a business. It's about carrying the weight of providing while trying to be present at home."
"Success isn't just one thing, it's a million things combined."
"I just want to be able to have whatever, keep my choices open."
"The reason I want people to be at my house is to see that I'm not chasing money, but I'm building a family."
