In this episode of Exited: Stories from Grind to Sale , host Gabriela Smith welcomes Atlanta-based entrepreneur Andy Smith to explore the candid highs and lows of building, scaling, and exiting businesses. Andy opens up about his transition from the corporate world to entrepreneurship, driven by a sense of frustration and confinement in traditional roles. In 2007, he co-founded his first company with a partner from the Netherlands, launching an innovative clean energy venture aimed at replacing their salaries—not chasing millions. Their complementary skills—Andy's strength in business development and his partner's technical prowess—fueled their early momentum. Despite early legal challenges and a high-stakes lawsuit from a former employer, their grit and creativity led to international deals and eventual scale. Andy reflects on the vital role of trust, humility, and emotional intelligence in both business and partnerships. He emphasizes that paperwork can’t replace human character, and a truly good business partner is irreplaceable. The conversation dives deep into topics like charisma, empathy, and the immigrant mindset—qualities Andy sees as foundational to successful entrepreneurship. Gabby and Andy also share personal stories about resilience, the emotional toll of lawsuits, and the importance of intentional pauses after an exit. The episode culminates in a discussion about the impact of exits—not just financially but on community and legacy. Andy shares that while his first exit brought financial transformation, it was the recognition from employees and their families that brought the most profound fulfillment. Now the founder of Blacksmith Ventures, Andy focuses on empowering other founders, especially those with deep technical expertise, to scale their ventures and prepare for exits. He shares lessons learned from both successful exits and a few hard-earned failures, stressing the importance of being "exit ready" from day one. This episode is a masterclass in building with purpose, adapting through adversity, and leveraging business as a force for personal and communal impact.

Episode 2: Disrupting ‘I Do’: How This Exit-Ed Founder Revolutionized the Wedding Industry Hosted by Gabriela Smith In this episode of Exit-Ed , Gabriela Smith sits down with visionary founder Ashley Hawks to discuss her remarkable journey from helping out in her mother’s bridal shop to co-founding, scaling, and ultimately exiting Forever Bride , a company that revolutionized the wedding industry. Ashley shares how growing up surrounded by tulle and tradition gave her insight into the emotional core of bridal retail—and how she used that foundation to spot a major gap in the market. Ashley walks listeners through how she transformed a local family business background into a nationwide platform that helped wedding vendors thrive through storytelling, community, and technology. With a heavy focus on service, relationship-building, and bold experimentation, Ashley and her partners created a brand that offered something national platforms couldn’t: local connection and authenticity. She opens up about the hard lessons of entrepreneurship, including why selling well matters more than selling fast, how to recognize when partnerships are healthy, and the importance of building a business that’s ready to scale and sell from day one. Ashley also speaks candidly about the personal challenges that come with motherhood, leadership, and letting go of the “baby” she built. Now the founder of SOAR , a peer group platform for CEOs and entrepreneurs, Ashley shares how the power of mentorship, community, and emotional intelligence helped her grow not just a company, but herself. One of the most striking moments in the episode comes when Ashley reflects on her journey: “You’re putting your name and your reputation and your money and your entire livelihood out on the line, and you're creating something out of nothing and expecting it to provide for your family—that’s risky, yes. But almost every time I took a risk, it paid off in some way, shape, or form.” Gabriela and Ashley also explore what it means to build a business with purpose, how to lead without losing your sense of self, and why personal legacy matters just as much as professional success. If you’re a founder navigating early growth, wondering what an exit could look like, or simply searching for an honest conversation about the ups and downs of entrepreneurship, this episode offers inspiration, practical insight, and wisdom hard-earned from years in the trenches. Listeners can also hear Ashley’s take on common founder traps, like over-planning before selling anything, the loneliness of leadership, and how to stay grounded when the spotlight fades.
