Embracing sobriety. Taylor and Jordan’s conversation about alcohol and addiction emphasizes the importance of recognizing unhealthy habits and looking for balance in life. Transitioning from relying on alcohol for relaxation and celebration to embracing sobriety led Taylor to a more fulfilling and purpose-driven lifestyle. They both discuss the power of seeking help, and making tough decisions. It's possible to live a phenomenal life without alcohol.

“Humans are super capable of change across every area of life.” Whether it involves a career shift, starting a business, or pursuing personal growth, Taylor believes in every human’s capacity to change and adapt, regardless of the different challenges they may face. He shares the importance of discovering the “playbook” for the area of life you want to change and following the directions. For Tayler, he serves as an example of transformative change, whether it’s transitioning professionally from technology to finding success in the doggy daycare industry or personally, during his journey to sobriety.

Advantages of a PE Partnership. Taylor and his co-founder, Mike, discovered that partnering with PRHG provided them with many advantages they didn't have before. Not only did they gain access to additional capital, but they also received industry knowledge and operational support while staying involved in the day-to-day operations and pursuing their passions. This partnership seamlessly integrated Paws ‘n’ Rec into PRHG’s extensive network and experience, allowing Taylor and Mike to expand their business more efficiently than they could have on their own. The successful partnership highlights the benefits of partnering with private equity firms to grow and scale your business.
