She Bought a Dance Studio at 21—Now It Pays for Her Retirement

When Dotty Hancock took over a dance studio fresh out of college, she inherited a pile of bills, no reserves, and zero financial training.

Fast forward 25 years—she’s debt-free, owns her building, pays herself well, and has turned her business into a long-term wealth engine.

In this episode, Dotty and Bryce unpack:

• The financial trap most studio owners fall into
• Why charging “just enough” is costing you everything
• How to break free from credit card dependence
• And what it takes to build a business that funds your future

Dotty doesn’t teach theory—she lives this. If you’ve ever felt stressed about money or unsure how to scale your studio with stability, this episode is your next step.
