217 - Three Signs Your Business Isn’t Transferable Yet
Many businesses look transferable until tested without the founder. This episode outlines three clear signs that limit transferability, why founder-centric structures reduce value, and how to spot risk before it blocks exits, scale, or freedom.
215 - Founder Dependency is Usually Invisible to The Founder
Founder dependency often feels like strong leadership, but it quietly increases risk and limits scale. This episode explains why founders miss it, how it forms, and why indispensability weakens long-term value, transferability, and freedom.
