In our latest episode, Jo unpacks the lessons learned from her short stint as the owner of the Big Bite cafe, where dreams of financial freedom and being a present parent collided with the harsh realities of rent hikes and the bottom line. And if you think managing a bank branch had Jo prepared for this adventure, think again.
This candid talk is a mix of humor, hindsight, and hard truths about the entrepreneurial appetite—sometimes, it bites back.
But wait, there's more! A cautionary tale that reads like a thriller novel, only it's painfully true. We peel back the layers of our tumultuous journey with a Two Dollar Shop, where due diligence turned into detective work. It was Mr. W's convincing façade that ensnared Jo & her husband in a deal brimming with deceit, leaving her to grapple with doctored books, financial ruin, and even threats.
Our experience serves as a stark reminder that in the world of business, trust can be as fragile as a shop's glass display, and sometimes, the price tag on learning is more than dollars and cents. Join us, as we share the insights and scars from our adventures in business ownership on the Raising Rich Podcast.
Follow our mother daughter journey towards financial freedom!
