Achieving financial freedom is the ambition of many that are building to sell their business. But knowing how to get there is a whole different ball game. Understanding the financial side of how to build and exit a business is key to making this dream a reality.

Fiona discusses the light bulb moment that happened after she finally understood how the financial side of her business worked. She compares the differences between her venture capital and independent deals as well as the importance of resilience in those looking to build and exit their business.
