🎙️ New Episode Out Now!
In this powerful episode, we sit down with Colby Varley, Vice President and co-owner of ATS. Born and raised in Salinas, Colby shares how his journey started with summer jobs in the trucking world and led to co-owning a successful business. From humble beginnings to leadership, his story is about grit, consistency, and taking every opportunity seriously.

Listening to Colby’s story brought back a wave of memories for me. I used to work for my dad’s trucking company as a dispatcher. It wasn’t the path I wanted long-term, but it taught me a lot and shaped my work ethic. That chapter of my life gave me perspective and hearing Colby’s journey reminded me just how far we can all go with purpose and perseverance.
