In this episode of The Mailbox Money Show, Bronson Hill sits down with former professional skateboarder, entrepreneur, real estate investor, and current mayor pro tem of Thousand Oaks, California — Mikey Taylor. Recorded right in Mikey’s own office, this conversation goes far beyond skate culture and business.
Bronson and Mikey dive into the evolution of Mikey’s career: from turning street skateboarding into a global platform, to founding and selling the iconic craft brewery St. Archer to MillerCoors, to building a real estate investment company, and ultimately stepping into public service. Mikey opens up about identity, risk, and reinvention — and how facing the end of a dream forced him to build a future with intention.
If you’re interested in entrepreneurship, investing, personal growth, or simply hearing an honest conversation with someone who’s reinvented himself multiple times, this episode is a must-listen.
