Build the Thing That Runs When You Can't | Lisa Murphy, MBA What happens to your business when life suddenly forces you to step away? In this powerful episode of Speak Feed Lead Conversations with Jackie Bailey, Jackie sits down with Lisa Murphy, MBA, Executive Coach, Fractional Leader, and Founder of Limited to Limitless, for an inspiring conversation about resilience, leadership, business continuity, and building a business that can thrive—even when you're not there to run it. Lisa shares the remarkable story of how she and her husband built a business from their last $5,000 into a six-figure-a-month operation in just 90 days. But just as they were preparing to expand, a devastating car accident changed everything. Both were left unable to work for weeks, and without the right systems, leadership structure, or contingency plans in place, their thriving business quickly unraveled. What followed was a difficult but transformative lesson: Building a successful business is one thing. Building a business that can survive without you is another. Today, Lisa uses those hard-earned experiences to help entrepreneurs and business leaders create stronger systems, reduce operational costs, reclaim valuable time, and build businesses designed for sustainable success. Jackie and Lisa also explore the power of perseverance, the importance of recognizing new opportunities after setbacks, and how artificial intelligence can help business owners work smarter rather than harder. IN THIS CONVERSATION, YOU'LL DISCOVER: 🔹 Why contingency planning matters: How preparing for the unexpected can protect your business, employees, and clients. 🔹 The hidden danger of being indispensable: Why a business that depends entirely on its owner may be more vulnerable than it appears. 🔹 How to turn setbacks into opportunities: Lisa's personal journey through business success, unexpected tragedy, financial loss, and rebuilding. 🔹 The power of resilience and resourcefulness: Why perseverance, adaptability, and the willingness to take action can change your future. 🔹 How to build systems that work without you: The importance of delegation, operational structure, and creating a business that supports your life. 🔹 The true cost of your time: How everyday tasks may be quietly draining your productivity and profitability. 🔹 Putting AI to work in your business: Why Lisa believes AI should do more than answer questions—and how automation can help business owners reclaim their time. A POWERFUL REMINDER FROM LISA "Your past does not determine your future, and your circumstances never determine your success." Whether you're an entrepreneur, small business owner, executive, or aspiring leader, this conversation offers valuable insights into building something sustainable, navigating uncertainty, and creating opportunities beyond life's challenges. Because real success isn't just about building something great—it's about building something that can keep going, even when you can't.
