MEET YOUR GUIDES
Here’s what no one tells you:
Leaving your business is a leadership moment.
It’s not the end of the story — it’s the beginning of your next chapter.
And it deserves the same clarity, courage, and intention that helped you build everything up to this point.
That’s why we created the Founders Transition Lab.
Chris has exited three companies — and knows firsthand how easy it is to obsess over the deal and overlook the human being behind it.
Lisa has spent a decade helping founders navigate the identity, relationship, and mindset shifts that no spreadsheet can solve — guiding them toward clarity, confidence, and wholeness.
This isn’t about stepping back.
It’s about stepping into a deeper kind of leadership — one that’s powered by who you are, not just what you’ve built.
Our mission is to release thousands of wise, experienced, and heart-centered former founders into the world — not just financially free, but fully alive.
You didn’t build your business by playing small — and your transition shouldn’t be either.
This is your chance to lead from a deeper place.
To step fully into your wisdom.
And to join a growing movement of founders using their experience for something greater.
We’re here to help you do it.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

This isn’t theory, and it’s not just another seminar. It’s a curated space for high-performing founders who want more than a checklist—they want clarity, confidence, and a trusted group to walk with. The Founder’s Transition Lab gives you structure, expert coaching, and a peer group of other business owners who understand the emotional and strategic complexity of stepping away. If you want to exit with intention—and actually be excited about what’s next—we built this for you.
-
Most founders wait too long to start thinking about their exit. They assume they’ll just “know when it’s time.” But by then, it’s often too late to exit on their own terms. Here’s the truth: if the thought of stepping away has even crossed your mind, it’s probably the right time to explore what that could look like. The Founder’s Transition Lab helps you start early—before you feel stuck, burned out, or boxed in. It’s never too soon to get clear, build a plan, and take back control of your future.
-
To get the most from your call, think about where you are in your exit journey. Are you still a few years out? Already having conversations with advisors? Feeling pressure to figure it all out? Wherever you are, it’s helpful to reflect on what you’d love more clarity around—identity, timeline, team, or just what’s next. This helps us understand how to guide you, connect you with the right peers, and map out next steps that are truly aligned with your goals.

We’ve worked with founders across industries—from creative agencies to manufacturing to professional services. The common thread? They’ve built a successful business, but they’re starting to feel restless, uncertain, or stuck. Maybe they’re wondering what’s next. Maybe they’re worried about letting go. The Founder’s Transition Lab is for anyone who wants to step away with confidence, purpose, and a plan—not just an exit strategy.
-
After you join FTL, we start by understanding where you are in your exit journey—emotionally, financially, and strategically. You’ll take a short assessment, get paired with a group of like-minded founders, and begin guided sessions with expert coaches. You’ll also get access to a private community where you can ask questions, share wins, and connect between sessions. It’s not just a program—it’s a trusted circle that walks with you every step of the way.
-
Most Founders stay in their business too long—not because they want to, but because they don’t know what’s next. They’re tied to the identity, the structure, the sense of purpose the business gives them. But as they hesitate, the value of the business can decline, succession gets stalled, and wealth remains trapped in one asset. The Founder’s Transition Lab helps you step back before it’s too late—so you can clarify what you want, build a roadmap for the future, and exit on your own terms. With purpose, with pride—and with the full value of what you’ve built.

At The Founder’s Transition Lab, we define a founder as anyone who holds ownership—full or partial—in a business they’ve helped shape. Whether you started it from scratch, bought into it, or inherited a legacy, if you’re currently leading and making decisions that impact its future, you’re a founder in our book. This isn’t about titles. It’s about being the one who carries the weight, makes the calls, and feels the ripple effects of every choice. If you’ve ever felt like the business is you, then you’re exactly who we’re here for.
