    What Happens When You Become Open to Possibility | Desiree's Story

    What if your biggest breakthrough isn't waiting for more leads...more marketing...or more effort? What if it's waiting for you to believe something greater is possible? In this powerful episode of Create Wealth Through Franchising, Kim Daly sits down with Desiree Land, owner of Sparkle Squad of Greater Boca Raton, to share one of the most profound mindset breakthroughs ever discussed inside The Zee Suite®. After a successful corporate career supporting the U.S. Army through a Department of Defense contract, Desiree was unexpectedly laid off. Rather than go back to corporate America, she decided that if she was going to work this hard, she wanted to build something of her own. She invested in a Sparkle Squad franchise and was doing well... ...but she knew she was capable of more. She joined The Zee Suite® on November 1, 2025, determined to understand how to create faster, more sustainable growth. Then one coaching conversation changed everything. During Office Hours, Desiree admitted something every entrepreneur has felt: "I'm doing the work...but my bank account isn't reflecting my effort." As Kim listened, she recognized something familiar. Desiree wasn't lacking effort. She was unknowingly trying to control how her success would arrive. She had already decided what her average ticket should be... How many leads she needed... How many sales she needed... And because she couldn't see a way for those numbers to produce the month she wanted, fear naturally followed. Kim challenged her with one simple question: "What if in the next 24 hours someone called and offered you a $300,000 job? Would that change your business?" They both laughed. Of course it would. Less than 24 hours later... Desiree sent Kim a text. "You're never going to believe what happened..." The City called asking why she hadn't submitted a bid on a project worth approximately $200,000–$300,000. Was Kim predicting the future? Absolutely not. What changed was Desiree. For just a moment, she became available to a possibility she had never considered before. And when her awareness expanded... New opportunities appeared. That experience led Desiree to another life-changing realization. Years earlier, while leading major Department of Defense projects, she helped secure a contract worth more than $700 million. Back then, she wasn't obsessing over what the contract would mean financially for her. She was completely focused on serving her customer exceptionally well. She realized that somewhere along the entrepreneurial journey, she had unknowingly shifted her attention from serving... ...to worrying. That awareness changed everything. Since then, she's experienced something every entrepreneur hopes for: Meeting the right people. Being in the right place at the right time. Unexpected opportunities. Greater confidence. Greater peace. And a growing understanding that our external results always follow our internal state. This episode isn't about positive thinking. It's about understanding how your beliefs, expectations, and dominant state of being influence the opportunities you notice, pursue, and receive. If you've ever felt like you're working harder than your results suggest... If you're a franchise owner, entrepreneur, or business leader ready to understand why effort alone doesn't always create extraordinary results... ...this conversation may completely change how you think about success. In this episode you'll learn: ✔️ Why controlling how success happens often blocks new opportunities ✔️ The mindset shift that changed Desiree's business ✔️ Why entrepreneurs unintentionally make fear th...

    The Two Beliefs Keeping Entrepreneurs Stuck | A Founder's Story

    Is your business really stuck...or are your beliefs keeping it there? Welcome to another episode of Create Wealth Through Franchising with Kim Daly. Today, Kim addresses the two biggest objections she hears as she introduces entrepreneurs and franchise owners to The Zee Suite®. "Isn't this just positive thinking?" "I can't afford it." If you've ever had either of those thoughts, this episode is for you. This isn't a sales pitch. It's the story behind why The Zee Suite® was created, what has happened since it launched, and why Kim believes the biggest obstacles to business growth are rarely found inside the business itself. They're human problems. After 25 years helping franchise owners build extraordinary businesses, Kim became obsessed with one question: Why do two people with the same franchise, the same training, the same systems, and the same opportunity create dramatically different results? That question led to the creation of The Zee Suite®. In this episode you'll learn: ✔️ Why The Zee Suite® is so much more than positive thinking ✔️ The difference between temporary motivation and lasting transformation ✔️ Why scarcity thinking quietly keeps entrepreneurs stuck ✔️ Why "I can't afford it" may be the very belief preventing wealth ✔️ The story behind the launch of The Zee Suite® ✔️ What happened when 39 entrepreneurs joined the original Suite Deal—and why the results became the foundation for a documentary ✔️ Why emotional breakthroughs always precede financial breakthroughs ✔️ How struggling franchise owners became top performers without changing their franchise, systems, or strategies At the end of this episode, Kim pulls back the curtain and gives you a complete walkthrough inside The Zee Suite®, showing the courses, coaching, community, and tools designed to help entrepreneurs create greater wealth, confidence, and freedom. If you've ever wondered what The Zee Suite® really is... This episode answers that question. And if something inside you says there's another level waiting for you... Kim would love to meet you.

    Kim Daly and Sharon Cupach: Why Work-Life Balance Feels So Hard (It's Not What You Think)

    Can you really have it all? Or have you been believing a story that's making success harder than it needs to be? Welcome to another episode of Create Wealth Through Franchising with Kim Daly. In this episode, Kim is joined by long-time friend and The Zee Suite® member, Sharon Cupach, for an impromptu coaching conversation that uncovers one of the most common limiting beliefs entrepreneurs face. Sharon has been working on growing her business, improving her fitness, and creating the personal life she truly wants. But she found herself believing that focusing on one area of her life meant sacrificing progress in another. What if that belief isn't true? Kim explains how the intellectual mind—the part of us designed for survival—uses fear, logic, and reason to keep us compartmentalized and resistant to growth. Even when the future we're moving toward is exactly what we want, the mind interprets the unfamiliar as unsafe. This isn't Sharon's struggle. It's a human struggle. And learning to recognize the difference between the truth and the stories your intellectual mind tells you is the work that changes everything. In this coaching session you'll discover: ✔️ Why work-life balance often feels impossible ✔️ The hidden belief that's making success harder than it needs to be ✔️ How the intellectual mind keeps entrepreneurs stuck ✔️ Why growth feels uncomfortable—even when it's exactly what you want ✔️ How fear disguises itself as logic and reason ✔️ The mindset shift that allows success in every area of life ✔️ The journaling and meditation prompts Kim gave Sharon to uncover her truth If you've ever believed you had to choose between business success, your health, your relationships, or your happiness... This episode is for you. Because the business changes when the business owner changes. And that's exactly the work we study inside The Zee Suite®.

    Why Your Thoughts Create Your Franchise Results

    In this episode of Create Wealth Through Franchising, Kim Daly takes listeners inside the mindset work of The Zee Suite through one of the most impactful personal development books in her life: The Strangest Secret by Earl Nightingale. Kim shares how this book became more than something she read once. It became a tool she returned to every month for years, using its 30-day assignment to reset her thinking, reinforce new beliefs and stay connected to the principles of success. This episode explores one of the core ideas from The Strangest Secret: we become what we think about. Kim breaks down why this truth matters so much for franchise owners, business owners and anyone considering business ownership. She explains how the thoughts we repeat become beliefs, how beliefs shape the way we show up, and how the way we think, speak and act with a strategy often determines the results we create. Kim also talks about why success in franchising is not only about the franchise system, territory, marketing or economy. Those things matter, but they are not the whole story. The operator of the vehicle matters too. Through her own experience of going from an average performer to a history-making franchise consultant in the same business, Kim explains why the inner work is often the missing link between having the strategy and creating the wealth, confidence and freedom you truly want. This episode also dives into goal cards, identity shifts, limiting beliefs, the difference between survival thinking and growth thinking, and why studying success can help people move off the sidelines and into action. If you are a franchise owner who feels stuck, or someone who wants to build wealth but has been held back by fear, doubt or overthinking, this episode will help you understand why your mind may be the most powerful tool you have.

    Why He Was Stuck (And Didn't Know It)

    In this episode of Create Wealth Through Franchising, Kim Daly is joined by Jamie Badgett, a franchise candidate who is preparing to become a new franchisee. Jamie shares his journey from a successful corporate career into the world of franchising, and why he began exploring business ownership as part of his transition plan for retirement, income diversification and family legacy. Rather than seeing retirement as an ending, Jamie explains how franchising became his “what next”, a way to create meaningful work, build cash flow outside of traditional market-based investments and involve his family in something they could eventually grow, sell or pass down. Kim and Jamie also talk through his original interest in a franchise he loved as a customer, and how Kim helped him step back from the product itself and focus instead on the outcomes he wanted from business ownership. Through that process, Jamie discovered a home services franchise that better matched his lifestyle goals, investment comfort level and desire to keep his corporate role while building the business. The heart of this episode is the mindset moment that nearly stopped Jamie from moving forward. As he approached the final decision, Jamie found himself stuck in analysis paralysis, looking for more validation even after the model, numbers, lifestyle fit and opportunity all made sense. Kim shares how this is a common make-or-break moment in the franchise journey, when fear, doubt and the mind’s desire for safety can keep people stuck on the sidelines. Together, they unpack how Jamie moved through that resistance by connecting the confidence he had built through endurance cycling to the confidence he needed to become a business owner. This conversation is a powerful reminder that franchising is not about being fearless. It is about having a vision, taking the next step, trusting the process and surrounding yourself with the right support. If you have ever felt stuck between wanting more and wondering whether you are ready, Jamie’s story will help you see that ready is a choice, and the first step is often the most important one.

    How Big Can You Think? A Franchise Owner's Journey from Opportunity to Vision

    In this episode of Create Wealth Through Franchising, Kim Daly is joined by Peter Carberry, owner of Art of Drawers Idaho and a student inside The Zee Suite. Peter shares his journey from a long career in tech, engineering and mobility solutions into franchise ownership. After years of experiencing the cycle of corporate hiring and layoffs, Peter opened his mind to new possibilities and discovered franchising as a way to own and control cash flow, build something scalable and create wealth on his own terms. Kim and Peter talk about why Art of Drawers resonated with him, how his background in engineering, project management, woodworking and problem-solving made franchise ownership a natural next step, and why franchising gave him the structure, systems and support to build with confidence. They also dive into Peter’s big vision for growth, including his desire to build an “army of designers” who can help more people transform their homes while creating opportunity for others. This conversation explores the identity shift that happens when someone stops seeing themselves as an employee or former corporate professional and starts seeing themselves as a business owner. Kim and Peter also discuss the mindset work inside The Zee Suite, including deliberate thinking, unlimited possibility, attracting the right people and learning to build wealth from a place of clarity, faith and vision. If you have ever wondered whether your corporate experience, technical background or problem-solving skills could translate into business ownership, this episode will help you see what is possible when you choose the right vehicle and start thinking like the person you want to become.

    Why I'm Obsessed With Wealth (And Why You Secretly Are Too)

    In this episode of Create Wealth Through Franchising, Kim Daly shares why she chose franchising as the vehicle to build wealth, freedom and cash flow she could own and control. Kim breaks down what wealth really means at its core: time, money and freedom. She explores why so many people feel trapped trading their time for someone else’s goals, and why business ownership can become the heart of a wealth-building portfolio. This episode explains why franchising offers a powerful path into business ownership by giving entrepreneurs proven systems, training, technology, marketing, support and a community of like-minded people. Instead of starting from scratch, franchisees can buy down the learning curve and build from a model designed for scale. Kim also dives into the mindset side of wealth creation, including the limiting beliefs that keep people stuck, such as not feeling ready, experienced enough, worthy enough or financially capable enough to take the first step. Through her own story of going from average performer to history-maker in the same business, Kim explains why success is not just about the franchise, territory, economy or marketing. It is about the person driving the vehicle. This episode is for anyone who wants to build predictable, sustainable cash flow, explore franchise ownership, create multiple streams of income or finally move past the mindset blocks that have kept them from building wealth on their own terms.
