Episode Transcript

[00:00:02] Speaker A: Ramping up your business. The time is near. You've given it hard, now get it in gear. It's Passage to Profit with Richard and Elizabeth Gearhart. [00:00:12] Speaker B: I am Kenya Gibson filling in for Richard Gearhart. [00:00:16] Speaker A: I'm Elizabeth Gearhart. I do marketing for Gearhart Law, and I have my own startups. So we do want to talk about your exciting new business journey. So you know that you are in a group of 2 in 5Americans who want to start their own business. [00:00:29] Speaker B: I believe that we're very entrepreneurial here in America and we like ideas and we like innovation, and this is what Passage to Profit is all about. [00:00:37] Speaker A: Should you start a new business journey? I'm going to ask Beth Nideck. What do you want your legacy to be and how do you see your business fitting into that? [00:00:45] Speaker C: Well, I have two kids that are in college, so I always think about this, of how my business and what I've created for our family is going to affect how they create and what they do for their family. And it fits. Honestly, it fits in because my younger son's in business school and he always says to me, mom, I learned this already from you by listening you talk to your clients. So I know my legacy is already there. And hopefully as they grow, their businesses will grow and our family will grow. [00:01:09] Speaker A: Oh, that's beautiful. Mike, I know you don't have kids yet. Maybe someday, but no, I do not. [00:01:14] Speaker D: So my legacy at the moment is not really developed because I don't really have anything to leave to anybody. But as I get older, I'm sure that will change. But at the moment, my real goal is to just be a well rounded individual. I want to try all new things. I want to get out of the rat race as soon as I can as my real goal and legacy so that I can experience things in life that I enjoy and want to do. I'm a firm believer that experience is really the fruit of life. So that's kind of what I want out of my business. [00:01:39] Speaker A: So your legacy will be an adventure legacy? [00:01:42] Speaker D: Yes, I think that would be fair to say. [00:01:44] Speaker A: So, Chef angel, what do you want your legacy to be and how do you see your business fitting into that? [00:01:50] Speaker E: I do have two baby girls at home and the thing that I try to push onto them is a lot of people don't really remember exactly what you do sometimes, but people remember how you make them feel. That's important. And that's something I push into my food and towards the morals towards them. [00:02:05] Speaker A: That's good, Kenya. [00:02:07] Speaker B: Definitely my family, right? Like, I'm doing all this for them, and I just hope to not just leave a lineage of means and wealth, but I want them to know what integrity feels like, what hard work feels like, and what being good and helping people feels like. So that's what I would say my legacy is. [00:02:24] Speaker A: Yeah, mine's similar. I think my legacy is just doing it your own way and thinking outside of the box. Because when I was growing up, you had a 9 to 5 job or an 8 to 5 job and you did what somebody else told you to all day. And now being in the entrepreneurial world, it's tough in so many ways, but now my son is kind of getting into it, and so, you know, take control of your own life. Like, teach our kids that.
