Episode 181: Business + Life Advice from My 87 Year Old Papa

Sometimes the best business advice comes from someone who has simply lived a lot of life.

In this very special episode, I’m sitting down with my 87-year-old Papa to talk about business, relationships, money, mistakes, faith, and what really matters in the long run. He spent decades building and running a business, and I wanted to give you a chance to hear some of the wisdom he’s picked up along the way. But honestly, some of the most meaningful lessons had nothing to do with business at all.

We talk about why relationships matter in business, the importance of knowing your numbers and valuing what you bring to the table, how to handle mistakes with honesty, and why there really are no “bad days”—just days that are better than others.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

Why treating people with kindness and making them feel seen can become one of your greatest strengths in business

Why you need to know your numbers and value your work without taking advantage of people

How to handle mistakes with humility, honesty, and integrity

Why relationships and genuine connection can matter more than simply making a sale

What decades of life and business experience taught my Papa about trusting God

Why the legacy you leave behind is about so much more than business success

This conversation reminded me that building a successful business is important, but building a meaningful life is even more important.
