Entrepreneurs: When Deals Collapse, Partners Clash, and New Businesses Are Born

What’s the one decision that can completely changed the trajectory of a business? In this segment of "Your New Business Journey", entrepreneurs share the pivotal moments that reshaped their paths—from a high-stakes $350M real estate deal that ended in collapse, to the hard-earned lessons of buying out partners in a growing company, to reinventing a business after COVID by launching a podcast studio, and even stepping out from behind the scenes into the public spotlight. It’s an honest, behind-the-curtain look at the risks, failures, and bold moves that define entrepreneurial success—and the real cost of making the decisions that matter most.

Richard Gearhart and Elizabeth Gearhart, co-hosts of the Passage to Profit Show, have this discussion with Scott Harris from Magnetic Real Estate and Greg Weir, author of More Than Just Luck.
