In this episode of DFW Grit, Dr. Taylor sits down with entrepreneur, speaker, and author Kyle Draper to unpack his unconventional journey from pastor to roofer to CEO and founder of the Rethink Everything book series. They dive into servant leadership, giving with guardrails, staying present in your current season, and why being “all in” where you are is often the gateway to what’s next. The conversation blends faith, business, mindset, and personal growth, highlighting that success comes less from having it all figured out and more from humility, action, and intentional focus.

"DFW Grit - The Podcast" is a podcast hosted by Dr. James Taylor, a top chiropractor in Dallas Ft. Worth with growing and successful ventures in real estate, commercial investments, and the crypto space. DFW Grit's intent is to get entrepreneurs to become successful in their businesses without apology. DFW Grit came from where all great business ventures arise: the golf course. James realized that we are all in the business of selling, and being successful in business is tough. Weakness is easy but strength succeeds. Strength also intimidates others and when others are intimidated, they certainly don’t build you up, they try to keep you at their level as their own form of security. "F that."

Here, DFW Grit will inspire entrepreneurs to win, become wildly successful, and prove naysayers wrong. We will show you who to bring with you and who is deadweight. these stories of success in the face of adversity are worth sharing. They provide guidance and inspiration to entrepreneurs looking to achieve their dreams. Especially those entrepreneurs surrounded by people who are telling them they can't do it.
