Ep. 15 | Raleigh Williams on on Acquiring Small Businesses, Hightailing it out of Big Law and Moving into His Mother in Law’s Basement, Leading the Life You Want, and Other Very Engaging Stuff

Winding Paths

This is a killer episode. I loved this conversation and I think you're going to enjoy it a lot. I'm talking to Raleigh Williams. Raleigh is the CEO of DealMaven.io, a marketplace for buying and selling small businesses. Raleigh is, of course, a former lawyer and he lasted all of nine months at Skadden before he hightailed it out of there, straight into his mother-in-law's basement with his wife and a three-year-old kid.

His dad didn't talk to him for two years after, because he was so angry — he even killed the power to an extra house he had in Utah, so Raleigh wouldn't stay there. This episode is full of so many rich nuggets and such an awesome storyline. I hope you have a real good time listening to it.

Next week, Tuesday, December 6th at 6:00 PM, EST Raleigh is going to be leading a free workshop on investing in small businesses for busy lawyers.
