Other People’s Everything: Scaling Your STR Empire Without Burnout with Bethany LaFlam

 On this week's episode, Avery is joined by Bethany LaFlam, a “recovering attorney,” community architect, and author of The Power of OPE. Bethany and Avery dive into what it really means to stay in your lane, leveraging “other people’s everything” (money, time, assets, skills) so you can scale without burning out. They break down how to safely and legally use other people’s money in syndications, why true operators—not just capital raisers—are the ones who last, and the dangers of growing too fast without experience or infrastructure. Bethany also shares how transparent communication with investors during tough seasons can build trust, and how offloading work outside her lane transformed both her business and her life.   How to connect with Bethany: http://bethanylaflam.com   How to connect with Avery: The Short Term Shop - https://theshorttermshop.com/ Short Term Shop Plus - stsplus.com Follow Avery Carl on Instagram Follow Avery Carl on TikTok Join the Short Term Shop Facebook group Check out the Short Term Shop on YouTube   For more information on how to get into short term rentals, read Avery’s books: Smarter Short Term Rentals - Buy it on Amazon Short-Term Rental, Long-Term Wealth: Your Guide to Analyzing, Buying, and Managing Vacation Properties – Buy it on Amazon Production done by Outlier Audio
