Mark: Building a Legacy—From Owner to Visionary Mentor

Mark started coaching with one big goal: to sell the business he'd poured his heart into for over a decade, and to do it right. Sure, the numbers mattered—a great exit was the dream—but what kept Mark up at night was the “after.” Who would he be once the company was gone? Would he regret or celebrate stepping back? He wanted more than a transaction; he wanted peace with his legacy, confidence in his next chapter, and the courage to let go at the peak.

From day one, our coaching felt different. Mark was direct, efficient—never big on small talk. And that suited Ria’s style perfectly. Their sessions were packed with honest, no-nonsense advice, quick bursts of laughter, and the kind of stories you don’t always hear from a coach. Mark loved that Ria was refreshingly funny and straight to the point, openly sharing every “dumbshit and mistake” from her own journey and every triumph—including how she exited her business and found purpose after the sale. Those candid lessons saved Mark countless hours, shielding him from rookie errors and helping him focus on what mattered most.

But the process wasn’t just tactical. Ria helped Mark navigate the emotional rollercoaster—preparing for life after the exit, setting intentions for his next act, and reframing obstacles as springboards for growth. Mark learned to trust his chosen leaders, hire top talent, and release control with humility—a move that made his company stronger than ever.

“Ria didn’t waste my time with fluff. She told it like it is, shared what worked (and failed) for her, and helped me see the path beyond business,” Mark says. “She made the whole journey—planning, selling, and moving on—not just doable, but exciting.”

Today, Mark has achieved more than a record-setting exit. He’s moved into a new chapter as mentor, investor, and leader, carrying forward the belief that true wealth is measured in lives changed, not just bank balances.
