Meet Chris Breen, whose journey from living in a camper at a storage facility to running Legacy Decks and the Legacy Decks Academy is one of the most inspiring stories in the deck building industry. In this episode, Chris opens up about his unconventional path - from growing up in Michigan with a firefighter/builder/racecar driver dad, to his quarter midget racing childhood, to eventually finding himself living in a camper with his family after returning from missionary work.

You'll hear about his early entrepreneurial ventures including lawn service and snow plowing as a teenager, his brief stint in art school and the financial struggles that led to bankruptcy in 2011. Chris doesn't hold back about the mistakes he made, the lessons learned the hard way, and how hitting rock bottom became the foundation for building something remarkable.

This conversation covers family, faith, failure, and the resilience it takes to start over when everything falls apart. Whether you're facing your own struggles or just love a good comeback story, Chris's journey offers hope and practical wisdom for anyone trying to build something meaningful.
