About this episode

Thinking about selling your company? 24 founders told us what really happens after the wire hits. — joinhampton.com/exit-report


Amber Lee was literally brought back to life, and then decided to start over.


Here’s what we talk about:

  • After a near-death experience in 2020, Amber finally launched her dream matchmaking business from the hospital.
  • She bought her mom a house and moved to Puerto Rico, prioritizing freedom over wealth.
  • Year one: $1M revenue. Now: $3M+ with fewer clients and higher margins.
  • Matches high net worth and high profile clients, with fees from $65K to $1M.
  • How matchmaking for the wealthy works.
  • Why successful women struggle to date, and why confidence matters more than cash.
  • A billionaire fell for a $200K-a-year locksmith… proof that values matter more than money.
  • Why fear, not logic, leads many high achievers to sabotage relationships.
  • How unrealistic checklists and surface-level filters ruin real connection.
  • Tips for finding love without spending six figures on a matchmaker.
  • The right partner can make you richer, healthier, and happier.
