They delve into the challenges and experiences of franchise owners, including the importance of working capital and building a strong team. They also discuss the support provided by franchise companies, ongoing requirements, and the significance of having an exit strategy.

Additionally, they explore the potential for leveraging the franchise model as a strategic step towards entrepreneurship and building a legacy for future generations. With valuable advice and expertise on offer, this episode promises to illuminate the path for those considering franchise ownership.
Liz rose through the ranks of the corporate world over a 22-year journey, only to be laid off as a casualty of a merger. As a corporate employee, she had the illusion of security which vanished based on a decision taken by others. That decision afforded her the space to reflect upon what she wanted. She was able to take back control of her future and never put herself in that position again.
Liz now splits her time between running her own business and advising others who are at the same crossroads she was years ago.
