Imagine: You're lounging on a pristine beach with your spouse, or perhaps you're teeing off on the golf course. The tranquility is uninterrupted, your phone stays silent, and the weight of business ownership responsibilities is nowhere to be found. Lately, we've noticed a significant uptick in business owners feeling burnout and looking for a way to transition out of ownership. If you're sensing that burnout creeping in, let's connect for a confidential conversation.

Such a privilege for Chinook to lead the facilitation of the transition of Luxe Home Interiors from the business owners, who originally purchased the business with the help of our partner Mike back in 2009, to their valued employees, enabling the owners to retire and the employees to become owners. Heartfelt congratulations to our sellers, Darren and Scott, as well as our esteemed buyers, Elaine, Janine, and Felipe! Wishing you joy in your retirement and continued success 🎉 https://lnkd.in/gXqDYh2x

Running a 10k with coworkers: where the real competition isn't in the race itself, but in trying to look like you're not dying while your boss breezes past you like it's a leisurely stroll. 🙃 Morgan, is that you? 🏃 Chinook Business Advisory x DealBuilder

We've had a busy couple days here in the Victoria office. Our team members came from all over to join us at HQ, so we had to document it 📷 We're a wild, mixed bag, but that's what makes working with us so special. It's not just about individual knowledge and experience; it's about the power of our collective wisdom and the friendships we build along the way. Best of all, we don't take ourselves too seriously. 🤪
