The untold truth - the emotional toll of selling a business with Luke Winter

Build and Exit

Selling your business can feel lonely and emotional.

You are parting with the thing you have devoted a significant portion of your life to, and that can feel hard. But beyond that is an opportunity to re-invent yourself.

In this episode I speak with Luke Winter, a creative director who recently sold his shares in the video agency Wallbreaker. Luke shares with great honesty the emotional toll the sale has had on him. From the moment of knowing it was time to try something new to a final week full of doubt, Luke experienced it all.

Now, with the opportunity to explore his next steps, Luke emphasis the need for support and understanding during this transformative time.
