EP308 Beyond the Exit - Redefining Identity and Purpose

The Cash Rich Exit Podcast

Welcome back to The Cash Rich Exit Podcast! I’m your host, Colleen O’Connell-Campbell, Wealth Advisor. In this episode, we wrap up our enlightening three-part series with leadership coach Eric Deschamps. We talk about one of the most personal aspects of an entrepreneurial exit: redefining identity and purpose beyond the business.

🌟 Rediscovering yourself After the Exit:

We discuss the psychological impact of leaving behind the role of business owner and the challenge of finding a new sense of self. Many entrepreneurs define their identity by their work, and the prospect of stepping away can feel like stepping into a void.

🧠 The Role of Vision, Mission, and Values:

We explore how understanding your core values and crafting a personal vision can give you clarity and direction for the next chapter of your life. Eric introduces a framework for uncovering or redefining these elements to align with your current stage of life.

🏆 Practical Tools for Transitioning:

From redeeming your past story to taking on reflective exercises like the 15-Day Life Vision Challenge, Eric provides actionable strategies for reconnecting with your purpose and discovering joy outside of your business.

🎯 Key Takeaways for the Self-Made Nation:

• Your Purpose Is More Than your Business: Start exploring what life beyond work looks like now, not when the sale is imminent.

• Reflect on your Core Values: Use your values as a compass to navigate the next chapter of your life.

• Take the First Step: Stop waiting for change to come to you - start creating the life you want today.
