In this episode, we wrap up our enlightening three-part series with leadership coach Eric Deschamps.

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. Are you ready to start planning for your cash-rich exit while preparing for a meaningful next chapter? Let’s connect .

35:56Welcome back to ‘The Cash Rich Exit Podcast’! I’m your host, Colleen O'Connell-Campbell, Wealth Advisor. Today, we continue our conversation with Eric Deschamps, a leadership and business coach who talks about the often-overlooked issue of loneliness in leadership. Eric brings insights on how to navigate isolation, especially for those at the top who may feel the weight of leading, without a peer group to lean on. 🌟 Redefining Leadership Loneliness: Eric opens up about the reality of isolation many leaders experience, describing it as a "silent pandemic," especially for men who may lack a support system outside of work. He emphasizes that leadership is about making hard decisions AND about finding the courage to seek connection and support. 🧠 Navigating the "Lone Wolf" Mindset: We explore the common “lone wolf” mindset often encouraged in leadership, where self-reliance becomes a double-edged sword. Eric explains the difference between standing strong in solitude when necessary and living in prolonged isolation, which can negatively impact both personal and professional growth. 💪 Strategies for Overcoming Isolation: Eric shares actionable advice on creating a network of support, finding mentors, and establishing an inner circle for meaningful connection. He stresses the importance of reaching out, sharing vulnerabilities, and moving from self-imposed isolation to a mindset of connection and openness. 💼 Key Takeaways for the Self-Made Nation: Loneliness Isn’t Permanent: Recognize that isolation can be a temporary phase and that you have the power to change it. Embrace Vulnerability: True connection begins when you’re willing to show your authentic self. Find your People: Seek a community or mentor group to share both your challenges and triumphs. Thank you for listening to this valuable discussion, and stay tuned for the final part of our series with Eric. As you hit play on this episode, please drop me a 5-star rating.

33:49Welcome back to The Cash Rich Exit Podcast! I’m your host, Colleen O'Connell-Campbell, Wealth Advisor to business owners working towards a cash rich exit. In today’s episode, we kick off part one of a three-part conversation with business and leadership coach, Eric Deschamps. Eric brings a wealth of knowledge, sharing insights into maintaining work-life balance - though, as you'll hear, he prefers the term "work-life rhythm". 🎙 The Ebb and Flow of Life and Business: Eric talks to me about the importance of understanding that life and business are not meant to be perfectly balanced, but rather harmonized in an ebb and flow. He emphasizes the importance of recognizing different seasons in life and business and how to adjust to them, rather than striving for unrealistic balance. 🛠 Tackling Burnout: Eric shares his personal experiences with burnout and highlights the common signs entrepreneurs face, including fatigue, irritability, and lack of motivation. He discusses how taking time off is only part of the solution. To truly overcome burnout, systemic changes and mindset shifts are necessary. 🧠 The Power of Leadership and Self-Care: As a coach, Eric has worked with thousands of leaders. He explains that effective leadership is about more than business strategies - it’s about personal growth, mindset shifts, and prioritizing self-care. By focusing on yourself and investing in your own well-being, you bring the best version of yourself to every role, both personally and professionally. 📈 Key Takeaways for Entrepreneurs: Watch for Burnout: If you’re asking yourself, “Am I burnt out?” you likely are. It’s time to seek help and make changes before burnout derails you. Delegate Wisely: Leaders must delegate tasks effectively to focus on the highest and best use of their time, rather than getting bogged down in minor tasks. Recognize your Season: Understand that life and work come in seasons - sometimes your business needs more attention, and sometimes your personal life does. Adjust your priorities accordingly. Are you feeling the weight of balancing business and life? It might be time to evaluate your current situation and your future exit strategy so you can focus on securing your financial future. Reach out to me for a complimentary one-on-one wealth gap analysis, and let's start crafting a plan that gives you the freedom to live your best life while building toward a cash-rich exit.

27:34Welcome back to The Cash Rich Exit Podcast! I'm your host, Colleen O'Connell-Campbell, Wealth Advisor. In today’s episode, I sit down with Lily Bond, the inspiring young entrepreneur behind Spyce Girlz, who launched her business as a teenager and turned it into a thriving brand. As an entrepreneur in her 20’s, Lily has already faced immense challenges and learned how to navigate the entrepreneurial landscape, offering valuable insights for seasoned business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs alike. 🧑🍳 Building a Business from Scratch: Lily shares her entrepreneurial journey, starting Spyce Girlz in high school to solve a problem she noticed in the spice industry - too much salt and too many unhealthy ingredients. Her story is a perfect example of how passion and necessity can lead to innovation and success. 🌱 The Power of Mentorship: Lily discusses the role of mentorship and the support she received, from her mother to business accelerators like Invest Ottawa and YSpace. She explains how this guidance has helped shape her entrepreneurial education, proving that even "self-made" entrepreneurs need a strong support system. 💪 Overcoming Challenges as a Young Entrepreneur: One of the biggest hurdles Lily has faced is being underestimated as a young woman in business. She talks of her experiences with suppliers and contractors who didn’t take her seriously and how she learned to advocate for herself and demand the quality her business deserves. 🏆 Fun, Frank Advice: Lily’s key piece of advice? “Don’t be afraid to be weird.” She encourages entrepreneurs to be bold, be different, and embrace their authentic selves. It’s these traits that set successful businesses apart. 🎯 Key Takeaways: Trust your instincts and follow your passion. Advocate for yourself, especially when others don’t give you the respect you deserve. Surround yourself with a support system, but also learn to navigate the tough decisions alone. Being bold and different is a competitive advantage in business.

I'm Colleen O'Connell-Campbell, your host and Wealth Advisor, dedicated to guiding you, the Self Made Nation, through the pivotal transitions of your entrepreneurial journey. Today, I’m calling your attention to a topic that is perhaps not as talked about as it should be by Canadian CEOs, founders, and business owners: preparing for a future where selling your business might not be an option.

Strategic Business Transition: How to plan effectively for handing over your business reins. Planning for Retirement and Financial Freedom: Ensuring your post-business life is secure and fulfilling. Wealth Transfer: How best to pass on your wealth to the next generation. We'll explore these areas through the story of "Sally", a CEO-Founder of a consultancy firm whose business model relied heavily on her daily involvement. When a health crisis struck, the lack of a protective business framework led her business to falter, highlighting the critical need for robust planning. 🛡️ Key Takeaways you’ll Gain from this Episode: Understand your Wealth Gap: Identify what resources you need to maintain your lifestyle without the business’s daily operations. Consider Protection: The importance of critical illness insurance* or similar safeguards to protect against unforeseen health issues that could impact your business and personal finances.

Hello, Self-Made Nation! I’m your host Colleen O’Connell-Campbell, Wealth Advisor. As we wind up the summer, we’re rounding out our powerful book club series, where we’ve sailed through the investment strategies of some of the great financial minds. 📘 Retrospective Insights: In this series, we set out on a literary journey with Benjamin Graham's "The Intelligent Investor," then we travelled the unpredictable paths of Burton Malkiel's "A Random Walk Down Wall Street," and finally explored the innovative ideas of Robin Wigglesworth's "Trillions". Each book offered unique insights into building a robust financial foundation, emphasizing market pricing, the futility of timing the market, and the undeniable power of diversification. 🔍 Key Strategies In EP 298 we covered The Intelligent Investor: We revisited Graham's time-honoured principles of value investing which taught us the virtues of discipline and patience, and the importance of focussing on long-term growth rather than short-term speculation. In EP 300 we A Random Walk Down Wall Street: Malkiel's work reinforced that market movements are unpredictable in the short term, advocating for the efficiency of broad-market index funds over the risks of individual stock picking. In EP 301 we covered Trillions: We delved into the transformative impact of index funds and ETFs as detailed by Wigglesworth, illustrating how a systematic investment approach based on market indices can significantly enhance post-business exit wealth creation. If you haven’t listened to those episodes yet, I recommend you start there. 🌊 Charting Future Courses: As we anchor this series, the combined wisdom of these pivotal works steers us toward one clear horizon - the power of a diversified, evidence-based investment strategy. This philosophy not only aligns with our mission at The Cash Rich Exit Podcast but also paves the way for you, the visionary entrepreneur, toward sustainable financial independence and wealth preservation. 🧭 Setting Sail for New Adventures: As we chart new territories in upcoming episodes, I invite you to reflect on these teachings and integrate them into your investment strategy. Prepare to navigate the next phase of our journey together with the solid foundation of a well-crafted investment philosophy. Subscribe to our podcast and never miss an episode that could make a crucial difference in your financial and entrepreneurial journey.

28:24Welcome to The Cash Rich Exit Podcast, I'm Colleen O’Connell-Campbell, your host and Wealth Advisor. On this podcast, we talk about the entrepreneurial journey, from the inception of a business idea through to a wealth-focused exit. Today marks our third and final episode in a ‘book club’ series focused on transformative investment philosophies, joined by Alicia Castellino, Senior Relationship Manager at Dimensional Fund Advisors. We read "Trillions" by Robin Wigglesworth, a book that chronicles the revolutionary rise of index funds and ETFs, instruments that have reshaped the investment landscape. This narrative is a tale of financial innovation and a testament to the power of disruption and simplicity - themes resonant with every entrepreneur. Key Insights from 'Trillions': 🚀 Innovation and Disruption: We explore the creation of index funds as a disruptive force in finance, paralleling the innovative spirit that drives your businesses.

27:01Welcome to The Cash Rich Exit Podcast, where we talk about the full spectrum of the entrepreneurial journey with a keen eye on successful, planned exits. I'm your host, Colleen O’Connell-Campbell, here to guide you through building a thriving business designed for a prosperous future. In today’s episode, I emphasize the importance of an investment philosophy as a cornerstone of financial success and stability. I'm joined by Alicia Castelino, Senior Relationship Manager of the Wealth Management Group at Dimensional Fund Advisors Canada. We’re kicking off our book club trilogy by studying "The Intelligent Investor - The Definitive Book on Value Investing" by Benjamin Graham. Hit play now because here’s a glimpse into what we cover: 📘 Understanding Value Investing: We begin our discussion by exploring the timeless principles laid out by Benjamin Graham, focusing on the crucial difference between investing and speculating. Understanding this distinction is essential for developing a long-term investment strategy that withstands market volatility. 📊 Long-Term Investment Strategies: Alicia and I discuss the importance of having a long-term game plan in investing. Patience and discipline are not just virtues but necessities for anyone looking to build and preserve wealth over time. 🔍 The Merits of Diversification: Diversification is a bedrock principle of successful investing. From managing inflation impacts to wealth preservation, diversification helps mitigate risks and enhances the potential for steady returns. 💲 Exploring the Value of Value Investing: The conversation turns to the core of value investing - understanding the real worth of investments and why cost matters. This segment illuminates the strategies for identifying undervalued assets that can contribute to robust investment returns. 📈 The Role of Professional Financial Advice: Professional advice can be invaluable in navigating complex financial markets. We discuss how consulting with experts can help tailor a financial plan that considers tax consequences, estate planning, and legacy building, ensuring a comprehensive approach to wealth management. 🎯 Prioritizing Goals Over Market Gains: One of the most crucial discussions today revolves around the question, "What’s more important? Beating the market or achieving your financial plan?" This discussion helps reframe investment success as meeting personal financial goals rather than just outperforming the market. This episode is packed with insights and actionable advice. Whether you're a seasoned investor or just starting your financial journey, Alicia’s expertise and our discussion on Benjamin Graham’s principles will undoubtedly offer valuable perspectives. 🌟 Your Feedback Matters: If you enjoy the show and find our conversations enriching, please consider leaving us a five-star rating on iTunes.

12:21Welcome to The Cash Rich Exit Podcast, where I, Colleen O’Connell-Campbell, guide you - ambitious CEOs, founders, and business owners - through critical entrepreneurial financial transitions. Today’s episode is especially important for those of you over the age of 40 with a significant T4 income, as we explore an exceptional tool for securing your financial future: the Individual Pension Plan (IPP). 🌟 Why Consider an IPP? The IPP offers a suite of benefits tailored for business owners aiming to maximize their retirement savings while minimizing taxes. I cover the breakdown in the episode including: Tax Advantages: Contributions made by your corporation are tax-deductible and grow on a tax-deferred basis, providing a potent mix of immediate and long-term tax savings. Higher Contribution Limits: Unlike RRSPs, IPPs allow for higher contribution limits, which increase with age, making them an excellent option for those looking to catch up on their retirement savings. Creditor Protection: Enjoy peace of mind knowing your retirement savings in an IPP are protected from creditors. Flexible Retirement Options: IPPs provide flexibility in terms of retirement age and benefits, aligning perfectly with personal and business exit strategies. 📊 How Does an IPP Work? Funding: Your corporation funds the IPP, ensuring sufficient assets to provide the required retirement benefits, with contributions determined by an actuary. Investment: While IPP funds can be invested similarly to those in an RRSP, they come with certain restrictions due to pension legislation. The funds must be managed under a "prudent investor" standard, focusing on diversification and risk management. Retirement: Upon retirement, the IPP can begin making pension payments directly to you, or the commuted value can be transferred to another retirement savings plan. These payments are eligible for pension income splitting and tax credits, optimizing your financial benefits. Remember, planning early for your exit and retirement is about securing financial freedom and ensuring a smooth transition to a comfortable retirement. Do seek out opportunities to enhance your financial well-being with tailored, sector-specific advice.
