The Ownership Mindset: The Conversation That Changes Everything

For many people, the real obstacle to ownership isn’t financial, operational, or strategic. It’s relational.

It’s the conversation with a spouse, a partner, a parent, or someone whose opinion carries weight.

“Ownership decisions ripple outward,” says Mark Milburn. “They affect more than just the person signing the agreement.”

These conversations often surface unspoken fears: fear of instability, fear of regret, fear of change. But they also surface shared values, long-term goals, and mutual hopes.

The Ownership Mindset encourages candidates to treat these conversations as part of the process, not something to avoid or rush.

Sometimes clarity doesn’t come from more research.
It comes from honest dialogue with the people who matter most.
