My entire career, I worked closely with small business owners, and the most rewarding part was hearing their stories—the risks they took, the challenges they overcame, and what kept them going. Yet, while small businesses drive our economy, their stories often go unheard.
Behind the Business gives these entrepreneurs a voice. From beloved local spots to innovative startups, this podcast uncovers the real journeys of business owners—the struggles, wins, and lessons behind building something from the ground up.

What Our Listeners Are Saying
Real Insights, Real Connection
"Such a great episode! The journey shared really hit home for me, especially about transitioning from a secure corporate role to entrepreneurship (and then back again for me...). That leap of faith is so scary and not easy
Imposter syndrome is such a constant companion on this path, and I can't say that it ever went away. More importantly, I completely agree with how critical a supportive network is, both for those moments of doubt and to help you keep pushing forward. Someone to just help with that extra piece of resilience to get you there.
Thank you for sharing your story. Keep doing amazing things"

Having had the opportunity to work at Buddha Burger, I can confidently say that everything he shared is not only true but also a genuine reflection of how he operates in real life.

π¨ Not an April Fools’ joke… @realtorbatool's baby nursery was covered in business flowcharts! π¨
When Batool Salim, Founder & Agent at Team Mosaic Realty, started structuring her business with her husband, it didn’t happen in an office—it happened in her child’s nursery. Instead of butterflies and mobiles, the walls were covered in sticky notes mapping out real estate systems.
At first, she resisted. But looking back? It was the first step to building a scalable business.

ποΈ IT ALL STARTED WITH A CHANCE π©
Before @dippeddonutsinc had its own shop, Jiten Grover was selling donuts outside @eatrastapasta in Kensington Market on Pedestrian Sundays. Magnus, the owner, gave him the space to test his idea—and after weeks of selling out, Jiten knew he had something worth building.
This is what community and small business support is all about.
