Entrepreneurship looks like freedom from the outside, but what does it really cost? In this episode of the Love and Leadership Podcast, Trent and Star Postell pull back the curtain on the raw realities of building a business from scratch. From selling plasma to pay the light bill to watching their daughter dig through couch cushions for spare change, they share the moments that tested everything they believed about their calling.

With over a decade of experience as entrepreneurs who have built multiple businesses, employed nearly 100 people, and served over 400 families, Trent and Star break down the myths that set new entrepreneurs up for failure, the personal sacrifices nobody warns you about, and the healthy habits that kept them from burning out. They also share an incredible testimony of how faith, mentorship, and perseverance turned their darkest financial season into a breakthrough they never saw coming.
