Legacy: Navigating Family Business
Welcome to the Legacy Podcast, the podcast that delves deep into the heart of family businesses.
Join Family Business Coach & 6th Generation family business owner, Anne Bauer, as we begin to untangle the intricate web of dynamics that come with running a business with those closest to us.
Through discussions, interviews, and insights, we'll explore how focusing on the energetic structure of the family business can lead to grounded communication, clear strategies, and healing across generations, especially during times of change & transition.
Our mission is simple yet profound: to help you cultivate balanced, harmonious relationships within your family business, get clarity around what we’re really going for, and then take aligned action that honors both your business and your family legacy.
Because when we can love our work and love working with our family, there's no limit to what we can achieve.

S2 Ep12: Beyond Generational Succession: Business Transitions, Energy, and the Courage to Evolve
Family businesses often focus on succession planning – but what about the transitions the business itself needs to grow and evolve? In this episode of Legacy: Navigating Family Business with Anne Bauer, sixth-generation family business leader, leadership coach, and energy practitioner Anne Bauer explores how businesses hold their own energetic path – separate from the people who steward them.
Anne shares candidly from her own journey as CEO of Racket, weaving in stories of resilience through six generations, lessons from the pandemic, and the power of honoring creativity in leadership. She introduces Bruce Feiler’s framework of transition – the Long Goodbye, the Messy Middle, and the New Beginning – and shows how these phases apply not only to families, but to businesses themselves.
This episode is especially for:
✅ Family business leaders navigating change beyond succession.
✅ Women in business balancing legacy with new beginnings.
✅ Entrepreneurs seeking clarity, creativity, and courage.
✅ Anyone curious about how leadership coaching and energy work can create space for new opportunities.
Plus, Anne offers an invitation to the upcoming Legacy Women’s Retreat – a two-day experience combining community, coaching, and energy work to help women leaders step into clarity and transformation.
