What happens when the path you planned for your child care business keeps hitting roadblocks? Sometimes the answer isn’t to keep forcing the original plan. It’s to stay open, get creative, and find a completely different way forward. In this episode of the Child Care Genius Podcast, Brian and Carol Duprey sit down with Anthony and Jennifer Thomason to share how their willingness to pivot helped them build a unique and growing child care business.
Listen in as Anthony and Jennifer take us back to how they unexpectedly entered the child care industry and eventually grew from one in-home program to multiple locations and commercial centers. Their journey hasn’t followed a straight line. They’ve faced closed doors, real estate challenges, financial uncertainty, and plenty of moments when they simply had to figure out the next move. Along the way, they discovered opportunities they never would have found if they had been too attached to one vision of what growth was supposed to look like.
Tune in to hear how coaching and mentorship challenged Jennifer and Anthony to rethink the way they were running their business, especially when it came to systems, delegation, and trusting their team. They share what changed when they stopped relying on “I’ll remember,” began putting stronger systems in place, and gave capable team members more responsibility. They also open up about an important realization: building a successful business shouldn’t come at the expense of actually enjoying the life you’re working so hard to create.
Join Brian and Carol for a candid, funny, and inspiring conversation about taking chances, learning as you go, letting go of control, and continuing to dream bigger. Jennifer and Anthony’s story is still unfolding, with plans for more automation, expansion, and new ways to help other child care owners along the way. If you’ve ever wondered whether there might be another way to grow your child care business and your life, this is an episode you’ll want to hear.
