A Puzzle Within a Puzzle

October 28, 2025

I love a puzzle. I love the cleverness that went into devising it. I love learning new things and creating new approaches.

I love bringing others into the process because several brains are better than one. I love the intellectual challenge and sense of accomplishment when we solve the puzzle.

That is exactly how I feel about helping women position their businesses for their exit. Every situation is unique, every business owner is singular. It’s a puzzle that requires a customized approach, a solid plan, a specialized team, accounting for unpredictable variables, finesse, and courage…

Finesse? Courage? Yes, because the pivotal puzzle within this puzzle is balancing the secretive nature of positioning your business for exit and maintaining stability within the business.

 

Today’s BlockbustHER BrainteasHER:

 

What is most important to fix and keep secret when you exit your business?

 

Patty’s Perspective . . .

 

I see women business owners get hurt and hustled. All. The. Time. I feel protective of my clients and colleagues.

So, I’m sharing tangibles for women to believe, find, prioritize, avoid, fix, keep secret, learn, lose, negotiate, and plan before you sell.

As my client, Jill, said so brilliantly: “I don’t see the way out, but I see the why out.” She has gotten very clear about why she wants to exit her business - and where there's a why, there's a way…

Now What?

 

Are you stuck in your Second Act?

Have you built a profitable and valuable business but instead of feeling like there's something missing, you’re feeling like there's something more?

If you’ve built an accounting firm, a law firm, a financial services firm, a psychology practice, or a specialty consulting firm that is generating $1 million to $10 million in annual revenue, you are in a prime market.

Larger firms and companies are growing by buying other firms. This has long been the case, but we’re seeing a higher rate than ever.

In a tragic twist, I see too many women who actually lose their company instead of exiting on their own terms. The exit process is filled with pitfalls and complex issues – especially for women.

I’ve built my business as an advocate, and I specialize in helping women founders transition to their Third Act – when you’re ready to do the work you’ve always longed to do.

As your advocate, by definition, I’m looking out for your best interests. I am not taking a brokerage fee, commission, or equity. I am not motivated by how quickly the exit moves or the final dollar amounts. I want what you want – and will help you get it.

Are you ready to exit your business on your terms?

That requires a new way of thinking, new skills, a simple and elegant design, and an advocate by your side. Contact me to learn more.

A Note from Patty...

My life’s work is empowering high-achieving women business owners to fine-tune their operations and scale their revenue for strategic growth, creating real business value and emerging exit ready. That value can transform into wealth when they are ready to exit their company - and I believe that wealth in the hands of women elevates society as a whole.
