From Corporate to Creativity: How Sarah Ross Built a Business of Peace & Purpose
Description
🎧 In this episode of The Franchise Woman Podcast, hosts Rebecca Monet and Tracy Kawa sit down with Sarah Ross, a Fresh Coat Painters franchisee from Austin, Texas, who left a demanding career in corporate accounting to build a painting business—and a life—on her own terms.
Sarah’s journey is full of wisdom, from understanding her strengths and weaknesses, to making faith-based business decisions, to growing her team (including her twin brother!) and creating impact in her community.
🌟 In this episode, we talk about:
- Why franchising was the right fit for Sarah’s analytical, risk-aware personality
- The transition from introverted accountant to confident business owner
- How faith and family shaped her success
- The power of local marketing co-ops and franchise collaboration
- Her guiding motto: Givers Gain
This conversation is a must-listen for anyone considering franchise ownership, career pivots, or purpose-led leadership.
