This is a Founder Series episode where Mike and Taylor review their progress, wins, losses from the previous month and look forward to the current month. We covered planning a trip to Italy, being forced to finally hire due to tearing a knee, and what we want to see out of ourselves over the next six months. Just another day of demystifying entrepreneurship.... maybe...

After 12 years of gaining skills and scars in tech sales, Taylor called it a day. After meeting a salty termite operator named Dan, Taylor realized he could use his experience from tech sales to build a non-tech business -- a sustainable wood preservation business. With 2 young sons and motivation to control his own destiny for the long term, he started Best Structure Preservations.

After 25+ years in 'Corporate America' -- Mike quit. After years of burnout, he took a trip to Italy to get his mind right, but landed on his passion. With a family to support, but more importantly to lead, Mike started Importing Italy and is bringing in high-quality, hard-to-get ingredients into the US. Using skills and scars from his former tech life, he is taking this new chapter head on - this is the first episode of his journey.
