EP352: Who You Become When Your Back Is Against A Wall w/ Libby Delucien

Eric chats with Libby Delucian and they discuss her remarkable journey from hitting rock bottom after a separation—being locked out of her house with nothing—to becoming a successful entrepreneur in the home service and software industries. She details how she leveraged her experience and skills to launch an organizing and cleaning company which quickly grew, leading to the creation of three separate software solutions for the industry. A significant portion of the conversation focuses on business philosophy, including the importance of a strong "why," leadership strategies, such as family quarterly meetings to prevent burnout, and innovative ideas like a tipping and Google review incentive system for her employees. The interview also touches on her experiences with mentors, notably Jonathan Potoschnik and Dan Martell, and her upcoming role as a speaker at Martell's event. Key Takeaways: View your business as a vehicle for a larger personal goal, keeping your self-worth separate from its daily performance. Find a powerful reason or "Why" for your actions that is strong enough to motivate you daily and make all excuses disappear. When starting fresh, use your past experiences and existing skills, such as being organized or structured, to accelerate your progress. Conduct regular family meetings to align on personal vision and schedule time off, ensuring you commit to these priorities before setting business demands. Recognize that intense learning and rapid execution are distinct seasons, and sometimes you must slow down the learning to accelerate execution. 🔗 Links and Resources Business & Sales Tools Contractor Sales Secrets Book a Call with Eric Triplett  Pond Industry Resources The Pond Digger Helix Pond Filtration EasyPro Pond Products CORAL—The Reef & Marine Aquarium Magazine Atlantic-Oase Fitz Fish Ponds – Koi Trips  Pond Trade Magazine Hikari Fish Food Events & Communities TWT Contractor Circle (Facebook Group) TWT Contractor Power Circle (Facebook Group) Social Media The Pond Digger on Instagram The Pond Digger on Facebook Train With Triplett on TikTok
