In this episode of Legacy Launchpad, Leah sits down with her eldest son, Ryder, to unpack one of the most unexpected and powerful case studies to ever come out of the family business. What started as a “slow season experiment” — launching a second candle brand in just 30 days — quickly turned into a full-scale apprenticeship in entrepreneurship, responsibility, and growth. Within six months, Ryder stepped into the driver’s seat of the brand’s marketing and helped scale it past multiple six figures, including nearly $50,000 in December alone. This conversation will inspire you about what happens when a young entrepreneur goes all in, takes ownership, and stops treating business like a side hobby. Leah and Ryder break down how homeschooling, character training, and real responsibility created the foundation for fast growth — and why the real limiting factor in business is almost never the business itself. From quitting a job and joining the family venture, to running ads, writing copy, launching campaigns, and making executive decisions, Ryder shares what it’s actually like to be thrown into the deep end — with guidance, accountability, and real stakes. This episode is especially powerful for: - Parents raising entrepreneurial kids - Young adults unsure if they’re “ready” for business - Entrepreneurs stuck at the same income ceiling - Anyone caught in tire-kicker mode instead of ownership mode It’s honest, practical, and deeply encouraging — without sugarcoating the work it takes to grow. In this episode, we explore: - How a second candle brand went from idea to launch in 30 days - Why Ryder quit his job to join the family business full-time - The role of homeschooling in developing ownership and self-direction - What it means to treat business as an apprenticeship, not a job - Running ads, writing emails, and owning marketing decisions at 19 - The mindset shift from “I don’t have enough time” to expanded capacity - Why December nearly hit $50K — just five months after launch - The difference between responsibility and micromanagement - Why “realistic goals” often kill momentum - How setting uncomfortable targets drives real growth - The freedom (and intensity) of entrepreneurship during peak seasons - Balancing business, health, creativity, and personal passions - Ryder’s YouTube channel and creative work outside the business - Why business does not reward tire kickers — and what to do instead - This conversation is part case study, part mentorship, and part reality check — especially for anyone who feels stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure if they’re capable of more.   ⏩ CHAPTERS (00:00) Introduction: The Limiting Factor (00:18) Welcome to Legacy Launchpad (00:30) Interview With My Eldest Son (01:46) Launching a New Candle Brand (03:59) Joining the Family Business (07:06) Homeschooling & Entrepreneurship (15:31) Roles and Responsibilities (18:50) Lessons Learned in Business (22:17) Reflecting on Success and Growth (23:27) Taking Directions From Family (24:04) Top Skills for Young Entrepreneurs (26:57) Setting Ambitious Goals (30:47) The Freedom of Entrepreneurship (37:42) Balancing Work & Personal Life (39:09) Adapting to Business Demands (40:18) Passions Beyond Business (43:44) Final Thoughts & Advice GET HELP FROM LEAH: 💰⛏️ The Goldmine (for complete beginners): https://leahmchenry.com/goldmine/ ⚫ Apply for Mentorship & Work with Leah: https://tidycal.com/team/legacylaunchpad/strategy-chat   ❤️ CONNECT WITH LEAH: Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/realleahmchenry/ Facebook — http://facebook.com/realleahmchenry 

In this episode, Leah sits down with author and entrepreneur Tina Koutras, whose journey took one of the wildest turns we’ve seen inside Legacy Launchpad. What started as a plan to build an audience for her upcoming book suddenly flipped into an unexpected “side quest” — launching a niche candle brand that exploded far beyond her expectations. Tina originally joined Leah’s program to fix what past programs couldn't deliver. This time she wanted clarity, strategy, and a real social presence before releasing her next novel. But while waiting for her manuscript to come back from editing, she decided to test Leah’s launch system on something smaller… a hobby she’d always dabbled in: horror-themed candles. What happened next shocked even her.   By following the program step-by-step — without skipping the “ingredients” — Tina and her husband launched Horrified Candles, tapped into a passionate 365-day Halloween/horror niche, collected over 120 post-purchase survey responses, and generated $13,000 in the first 45 days and $24,000+ within two months. And then came the plot twist: Shopify terminated their store without warning, shutting down 30+ pending transactions. Instead of quitting, they rebuilt a new site in 24 hours, got reinstated, and kept going. This episode is a must-listen for any entrepreneur who feels stuck, overwhelmed, or afraid to pivot — especially creatives and authors who want to build a loyal audience before their big launch.   In this episode, we explore: * Tina’s original goal: launching her book the right way after her first attempt fell flat * Why she chose to “test” Leah’s launch system on a candle brand * The power of choosing a hyper-specific niche (horror fans & 365-day Halloween lovers) * How she validated demand fast with pre-orders and early email list building * The 120+ post-purchase survey insights that shaped her direction * Why skipping steps in the process derails most new entrepreneurs * Shopify shutting down her store — and how they rebuilt everything in 24 hours * The mindset shift needed to push through “sink or swim” moments * How this candle brand will now feed her book launch audience * Building a 2,200+ person “seed list” before publishing * The long-term plan: cross-pollinating readers and buyers, bundles, and loyalty fans * Why every failure is “just a data point” — and how to use it as fuel This conversation is encouragement, strategy, and real-world resilience all in one.   ⏩ CHAPTERS (00:00) Introduction and Initial Setback (00:18) Welcome to Legacy Launchpad (00:32) Meet Tina: Pivoting From Book to Candles (04:21) Launching Horrified Candles (05:21) Overcoming Challenges and Achieving 5-Figure Success (12:50) Email Lists, Niche Fans & Future Book Launch Plans (18:52) Lessons on Consistency, Research & Messy Action (26:49) Conclusion and Where to Find Tina   GET HELP FROM LEAH: 💰⛏️ The Goldmine (for complete beginners): https://leahmchenry.com/goldmine/ ⚫ Apply for Mentorship & Work with Leah: https://tidycal.com/team/legacylaunchpad/strategy-chat    ❤️ CONNECT WITH LEAH: Instagram —  https://www.instagram.com/realleahmchenry/  Facebook —  http://facebook.com/realleahmchenry
