Money School Podcast What No One Tells You About Leaving Your Own Company w/Cody Hofhine
You built your business from scratch and poured your heart and soul into it. So it might feel strange, even disloyal, to think about stepping away or exiting.
From the outside, everything's working: sales are up, your team's solid, and your brand is gaining traction. But under the surface? You're tired, the vision that once felt clear now feels fuzzy, and growth has started to feel like a grind.
This isn't uncommon. Many founders hesitate to plan an exit because things still feel "fine." But there's a big difference between "fine" and truly free.
Founders leave their businesses for all kinds of reasons, burnout, shifting goals, evolving partnerships, or simply growing beyond what they once built.
The biggest misstep is waiting until things fall apart to start thinking about what's next.
How do you build with the exit in mind?
In this episode, I'm joined by Cody Hofhine, the founder of Utah Sell Now, Texas Sell Now, and Joe Homebuyer. As a business owner who has exited four companies, he has a lot to share about what worked, what didn't, and what every founder should consider before making their move.
