#288: Multiple Streams, One Mission: How Andrea Foley Builds and Scales
Feb 11, 2026 Season 1 Episode 288
Hosts - Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner, Producer - Denlis Bertrand

Andrea Foley is the definition of “don’t put me in one box.” In this episode, she breaks down how she’s built a stacked portfolio of businesses—from kids resale and retail, to real estate, to the car wash world—while keeping her eye on the long game: legacy.

This conversation goes way beyond “here’s what I do.” Andrea gets real about the pressure small business owners are under right now, how her consulting background shaped the way she thinks about growth and decision-making, and why financial planning isn’t optional if you want to stay in the game.

You’ll also hear practical investing/operator talk: why house hacking is still one of the cleanest on-ramps for new investors, how underwriting a car wash deal is basically the same discipline as underwriting real estate, and why city regulations can quietly torch your budget if you don’t plan for surprises.

They wrap with real-life lessons that come from taking hits, rebuilding, and trying to leave something behind that matters—plus a straightforward parenting philosophy centered on responsibility and work ethic.
