What does it take to build and scale a thriving business? In this episode of The BreakLine Arena, we sit down with Stef Fisher-Sample, CEO & Co-Founder of HenHouse Holdings, to explore the realities of entrepreneurship and franchising.

Stef shares her journey from taking over seven struggling Taco Bell locations to growing a successful business portfolio. She dives into her "pain cave" mindset, the value of hiring in middle America, and why she believes in acquiring businesses instead of starting from scratch.

We also discuss her "lazy entrepreneur" approach—how to work smarter, not harder—and why authenticity is the ultimate leadership skill. If you're curious about scaling businesses, navigating franchising, or leading with impact, this episode is for you!
