ICYMI - Exit to Excellence: Breaking Free from the Illusion of Wealth with Jerome Myers
You got the money. Now what?
That’s the question too many founders face when the wire hits and the silence sets in.
In this episode of Your Next, the mic flips, as Jeroeme sits down with JR Lay for a no-BS conversation about what really happens after you sell your business. Spoiler: it’s not champagne and sunsets.
The discussion revolves around The Founder’s Exit Paradox, that sinking feeling of confusion, disconnection, and loss that arises when the work is gone, yet you're still searching for meaning and worth. This is for every visionary who built a mountain, reached the top, and thought, “Is this it?”
Jerome shares his raw, personal journey through post-exit chaos, identity unraveling, and the scars that success leaves behind, and how he helps other high-achieving founders find meaning after the money.
If you’re building toward an exit, don’t just listen to this episode; study it.
