Hello and welcome to the exit presented by Flipus, this is the 30 minute podcast featuring

amazing entrepreneurs who have been there and have done it.

The exit talks to operators who have bought and sold businesses of all in different sizes.

You learn how they did it, why they did it, and get exposure to the world of exits.

It's a world occupied by a small few, but accessible to many.

And on this special episode, I sit down with Kimberly Kakavo.

She is currently the founding partner of Face Your Grace, and she previously went through an exit

with one of our prior guests that was called Grace by Grit.

It was a fantastic women's athletic apparel brand, and they were acquired by a company

called High Leet, and they sold in June of 2018.

It's a really fantastic story, and that's why we really wanted to bring Kimberly on the show,

just to talk about what's happened during the exit or what happened during the exit,

and as well as after the exit, I'm always really fascinated by

after the acquisition goes through, what are the next steps?

So they wrote a book that was called Grace by Grit, where she was the co-author,

and now this new project launching in 2021 called Face Your Grace is a fantastic way.

It's a multimedia approach that's using videos, books, workshops to really give women

the tools and skills they need to start a business.

You know, everything from teaching them about creating a cap table,

to really creating a business plan and launching a business.

So I love emphasizing entrepreneurs that are doing this.

They're reaching out to the community, and they're helping a lot of people after an exit,
