Description

Ever thought about leaving your 9-to-5 for something bigger—but weren’t sure where to start? In this episode of The Franchise Millionaire™ Show, Andrea Bailey Brown sits down with Adepeju Araoye, a former banker who traded in interest rates and loan approvals for something much more personal: franchise ownership in the senior care industry.

Adepeju always had a passion for helping people, but figuring out how to turn that into a business wasn’t exactly straightforward. She takes us through her journey from corporate life to launching Assisting Hands Home Care Ottawa, the fears she had (especially about money and business challenges!), and how franchising gave her the tools she needed to succeed.

We also dive into why senior care is booming, what it really takes to start a non-food franchise, and how she manages her business in Ottawa while living in Montreal. If you’re thinking about starting a business but don’t know where to begin, this episode is full of real advice and inspiration!
