🔥 This episode is a powerful reminder that the path to purpose is rarely easy—but always worth it.

In this inspiring conversation, Coach Martin sits down with Dillon Smith to unpack a deeply personal and transformational journey of faith, failure, and finding purpose through entrepreneurship.

From launching a car wash business as a teen to facing homelessness with six children, Dillon’s story is nothing short of raw and real. But in the middle of brokenness, he heard a clear call from God:
 “You’re not stepping into what I’ve called you to do.”

That divine moment shifted everything. What started as a prayer over three days in a small salon suite quickly turned into a thriving business. Within 30 days, Dillon and his wife Crystal were earning more than they ever had—and God’s hand of acceleration didn’t stop there.

đź’ˇ From a single chair to a full-service salon...
 💡 From struggle to strategy...
 💡 From surviving to scaling a successful marketing agency rooted in purpose...

Coach Martin dives into the mindset shifts it takes to leave the "desert" and step into your promised land. This episode is a wake-up call for every entrepreneur stuck waiting for perfect conditions.

"God can’t move a parked car. You may never feel ready—but that doesn’t mean you’re not called."

If you've been waiting for a sign to step out in faith, this is it.

🎧 Tune in and be encouraged to trust the process, move with purpose, and build what God has placed on your heart.
