This week, I have a special treat for you. Recently, I was a guest on The Third Growth Option Podcast hosted by Benno Duenkelsbuehler. I had the opportunity to talk about growing up in a family of small business owners and the influence it had on my life. I’ve wanted to be a business owner from the time that I was a kid. We didn’t really say “entrepreneur” in the 1980s in my little town. That would have sounded too highbrow. We’ve certainly come a long way since then! Even though I had plenty of role models as a kid, I was encouraged to get a college education. I was the first in my immediate family to earn both a bachelor’s and master’s degree, which put me on course for a more traditional career path.
After working for several large corporations, I decided to reconnect to my roots and start my own business. My long-term side gig of helping entrepreneurs build their businesses helped me to realize that starting a consultancy would be a natural transition. In this episode, Benno and I cover a variety of topics. I told the story of why my mother is my favorite “client” and how volunteering to help her at the age of thirteen foreshadowed what I would do later in life. We also discussed why I created the Proprietors of Pittsburgh Podcast. I had a blast talking to Benno, and I hope you enjoy this bonus episode.
