The emotional & decision making journey of selling one's practice with Ashby Daniels, CFP®

Welcome to this episode of 20/20 Money! My guest on today’s show is my friend Ashby Daniels, CFP® and we have what I think is a very engaging and revealing conversation about the emotional and mental journey a business owner goes through when considering a sale of their business. We talk about getting over the fear of selling, how to think about regrets, the alternatives to selling, the importance of having something to retire to, and the surprising truth about what it feels like when the check from the sale of your business hits your bank account. I really enjoyed this conversation and I trust you will as well, especially if you are a practice owner that has considered selling (or know, deep down, that you should be thinking about selling, if for no other reason than you’d like to enjoy the next chapter of life post-practice ownership).   As a reminder, you can get all the information discussed in today’s conversation by visiting our website at integratedpwm.com and clicking on the Learning Center.
