How I Built My Small Business
Welcome to 'How I Built My Small Business,' where we dive deep into conversations with guests who've carved out their own path to success. But, we're not only about the creation of businesses. Alongside entrepreneurs, I also chat with experts offering perspectives that'll benefit anyone striving to lead, learn, or improve.
This podcast is both a creative outlet and a platform to share knowledge from incredible people. My guests open up about the raw, heartwarming details of their journeys, offering expertise, simplifying business know-how, sharing money-making ideas, and imparting life wisdom—all through the power of storytelling.
By listening to these interviews and stories, my hope is that you find even one little takeaway that sparks or inspires your path.
While most of my guests make $1 million to $20 million net profit a year, some make more and some make less, but there is a lesson worth learning in each one. I also bring in special guests from brokering and mergers, mindset and meditation, entertainment and marketing, among others. So, the line-up is diverse in niche, experience and perspective - and so, so fun.
Special episodes include:
No College, No Problem
Big business founders with a focus on helpful small business topics
Expertise in hyper-niche fields
The connecting piece is that every one of my guests has started their own business at some point in their journey.
Thank you for listening.

Hi everyone. I hope your holiday season was filled with joy, laughter and real connection. Season two of how I Built my Small Business is just around the corner and I'm so excited to share these incredible conversations with you. The season is packed with thought-provoking stories, expert wisdom and actionable advice to help you grow in both business and life. While I've aimed to keep episodes to 45 minutes, some are still closer to an hour because of the depth and value my guests bring. If you can't finish an episode in one go just bookmark it and come back during a walk, a shower or even while brushing your teeth. The second half often holds the real treasure, so I encourage you to listen through for the full experience.
Speaker 1:I'm committed to sharing insights and wisdom through storytelling, because stories stick in a way that facts alone don't. Each episode is designed to inspire, inform and help you take meaningful steps forward, or at least give you something to think about. The format remains the same guest bio, interview and key takeaways in the last three minutes. So get ready to take notes, follow the show and share it with a friend to deepen your learning. Some of my upcoming guests include Rue Hill of the Surf Simply Resort in Costa Rica. Dr Megan Lyons, an uber smart doctor of clinical nutrition with expertise in functional medicine and integrative nutrition, and Hayes Hitchens of Moondance Adventures. And our season opener is Jeff Smart, the international bestseller of who, the number one book on hiring for over 10 years.
Speaker 1:Just reflecting on these conversations makes me want to re-listen to the episodes. If you enjoy conversations that dive below the surface, this is the place for you. I'm incredibly selective about my guests. For every hundred or so pitches I receive, I might choose one. The rest, I find them, through my own research and life experiences, reaching out directly, because I have a sincere interest in learning from them. Follow the show now so you don't miss an episode and share it with someone as curious and passionate about learning as you are. Thanks for being here. Season two kicks off next week. Have a great day.
