On this episode of the Energizing America podcast, Shane sits down with Ryan Swor from Lake Superior Consulting to talk about the journey of entrepreneurship, intrapreneurship, and building resilient businesses in the energy industry. They dig into challenges like managing cash flow, leading through uncertainty, scaling teams, and learning to let go as organizations evolve. Ryan also shares valuable lessons on leadership, communication, and how to keep people at the center of every decision.

The conversation goes beyond business mechanics—they discuss how families, partners, and communities all play a role in supporting the energy workforce, and how leaders can balance persistence with patience when driving change.

Ryan also highlights Lake Superior Consulting’s new podcast, Manic Energy, which brings conversations about energy, business, and life. With its mix of education, motivation, and entertainment, Manic Energy offers a fresh perspective for anyone navigating today’s fast-paced world.
