Ready to dive into the real-world chaos and rewards of mixing family and business? In this episode, I sit down with Tom, Shirley, and Kim for an honest, lighthearted look at how each of us differs from our parents—not just at home, but where it matters most: at work. We talk about the unexpected curveballs you face in a family business, and how adaptability is a skill you can’t afford to skip. From learning on the fly—like jumping from store manager to meat cutter in a single phone call—to stepping into leadership roles with zero preparation, we open up about what it really takes to succeed when everyone in the family wears more than one hat. You’ll hear our stories of moving to new towns, starting over, and relying on support networks both inside and outside the business. Whether you’re running your own operation, working with family, or just want to get inspired by real strategies for growth, you’ll pick up practical tips on staying flexible, thinking young, and keeping an open mind—lessons that get more valuable with every year (and every business). Hit play, get motivated, and remember: in family business, change isn’t just inevitable—it’s your secret weapon.
