A new year is upon us, and for many aspiring entrepreneurs, it’s a time of renewed energy and fresh goals. If you’ve been searching for step-by-step guidance on how to start a home care business in 2025, you’re in the right place. Whether you’re planning to start a business, improve your health, read more books, or learn a new skill, the beginning of the year feels like the perfect time to begin. For those dreaming of launching a home care or home health care business, now is the moment to take that first step. Yet, here’s the reality: by the end of January, many people have already abandoned their hopes and dreams.

Why? Because starting is easy; sticking with it is where the magic happens.

Let me give you a pop quiz to see just how serious you are about starting a home care or home health care business in 2025. Be honest with yourself as you answer these questions:

Here’s the kicker: if you’re truly serious about starting your home care business, it’s time to embrace the perseverance of visionaries like Walt Disney. Yes, that Walt Disney. He was rejected by over 300 banks when seeking financing for Disneyland. Yet, he didn’t give up. He kept at it until he secured the resources to make his dream a reality.

Lessons From Walt Disney: Patience and Perseverance

Disney’s story is one of persistence, grit, and unwavering belief in a vision. It took time and numerous setbacks, but he built an empire—not overnight, but through consistent effort. If you’re rushing to find success, you might miss the important lessons in the process of building something great.

To achieve something you’ve never had, you have to do something you’ve never done. That starts with believing in your vision so much that you keep going—even when the money isn’t flowing or the support isn’t there. It means sticking with the process until you’re owning and operating a multi-million-dollar home care business.

My Story: From Start-Up to Multi-Million Dollar Business

I started my home care business back in 2006. By my second year, I had generated over $2.3 million in revenue. But don’t get caught up in the numbers alone. The road to seven figures was anything but smooth. I hit bumps, changed tires, ran out of gas (or money), and often wondered if I was on the right path. Still, I stayed the course.

Like Walt Disney, I believed in my vision even when things seemed uncertain. That belief fueled my perseverance, and it’s why I’m here today to share my journey with you.

The Real Question: Will You Stick With It?

As we step into 2025, ask yourself: Will you stick with what you start? Or will you give up because you didn’t get the microwave results you hoped for? Success doesn’t happen in an instant. It’s the result of consistent effort over time.

Starting a home care business is no small feat. It requires commitment, research, planning, and a clear understanding of your state’s home care licensing requirements and regulations. But the rewards? They’re life-changing—not just for you but for the clients and families whose lives you’ll impact through your services.
