E.202 Could Your Business Survive Without You? The Protection Plan Most Entrepreneurs Ignore

What happens to your business if you suddenly can’t work? Not because you quit. Not because you failed. But because life happened. Most entrepreneurs spend years building their business, growing revenue, serving clients, and scaling… but never stop to think about how vulnerable their business really is if everything depends on them. In this episode of Your Business on Purpose, Dawnette Palmore dives into one of the most overlooked business protection strategies for entrepreneurs: Key Person Insurance. And before you tune out because you heard the word “insurance,” this episode is not about selling policies. It’s about protecting: • Your income • Your family • Your employees • Your clients • The business you worked so hard to build Dawnette explains: • What key person insurance actually is • Why many small businesses are financially exposed • The difference between personal life insurance and business protection • How businesses spiral operationally and financially after unexpected illness, disability, or death • Why structure, systems, and protection matter just as much as making money • Questions every entrepreneur should ask themselves today If your business depends heavily on you showing up every day, this episode is a must-listen. Because building wealth is only half the equation. Protecting it matters too.

In this episode, you’ll learn: • Why burnout is deeper than just being tired • How subconscious patterns shape your decisions and relationships • Why high-achieving women struggle with overachievement and people-pleasing • The difference between conscious mindset work and subconscious rewiring • How to identify the stories and cycles keeping you stuck • A simple exercise to begin rewiring negative thought patterns This conversation is a reminder that you do not have to build your business at the expense of yourself.
