‘24 Out of 25’ with Elizabeth Burrows – Reward Podcast Episode 50
She sat by the ocean and wrote down 25 non-negotiables for the sale of her company. And just six months ago, she sealed the deal with 24 out of 25. That’s what happens when a leader knows exactly what she’s built… and what it’s worth.
Elizabeth Burrows started her consulting firm at age 26 with a passion for healthcare access… and a firsthand understanding of what it means to live without it. Over the next decade, she quietly built one of the most specialized healthcare grant writing firms in the country — helping create over 300 new service delivery sites and impacting more than 2.5 million patients.
Elizabeth wasn’t looking for an exit, but thanks to a conversation she had within The Trust, she thought it may be the right time.
In this episode of REWARD: The Podcast of The Trust, Ali Brown sits down with Elizabeth for a refreshingly candid conversation about what selling a business actually feels like — the process, the emotions, the anticlimactic wire transfer, and what comes next.
On this episode of the #REWARDPodcast, you’ll hear:
What conversation within The Trust changed everything — especially the number Elizabeth didn’t think was possible
Why she turned down the highest offer, and what she was actually looking for in a buyer
What it felt like when the wire hit her account on December 23 with a house full of family — and why it was somehow both perfect… and anticlimactic
The mindset shift that comes with generational changing wealth — and why she’s still driving the same car
This one is for the woman who built something real and is starting to wonder what it might be worth.
