What happens when an entrepreneur reconnects with a creative gift that was buried for years?
In this episode of Wednesdays Off, Stavros talks with Francisco Prado about art, entrepreneurship, family business, women empowerment, business exits, hiring, ownership, and the lessons that came from crisis. Francisco shares how painting became a meaningful part of his life during the pandemic, how creativity now helps him solve business problems, and why hidden talents can become powerful tools for fulfillment and impact.
The conversation also explores what it takes to navigate family dynamics in business, how to prepare a company to sell, why middle management matters, and how incentives shape leadership. Francisco's story brings together art, resilience, governance, and personal growth in a way that feels both practical and deeply human.
If you are building a company, navigating change, or wondering what part of yourself you left behind on the way to success, this episode is for you.
Share it with someone who needs the reminder, and visit Routine Rebel to learn more about building a life and business with more freedom, intention, and community.

What is Wednesdays Off?
Wednesdays Off is the freedom podcast from Routine Rebel.
It’s for the leaders who are done being consumed by the very businesses they are building. Through raw conversations, personal insights, and behind-the-scenes stories, we explore what it really means to reclaim your time, energy, and joy—without sacrificing success.
This isn't a hustle podcast.
It’s a call to adventure—to practice freedom in real time, to simplify what matters, to build systems that get you out of the weeds, and to connect with others doing the same.
Each episode helps you challenge old patterns, reconnect with what matters, and build a life that’s spacious, meaningful, and yours.
Because freedom isn’t the reward. It’s the requirement.
