  • #15 - God Made Us For Discomfort” w/ Buddy Bailey of Zo Financial, LLC

    We had the honor of having Buddy Bailey on the show recently! If you’re from Alaska you'll know him as the face of Bailey’s Furniture Store but he didn’t come for that.

From cutting his teeth as a 24 year old to running a quickly growing business with partners in the middle of the Ukrainian Conflict. Our time with Buddy was encouraging, life giving, and a ton of fun. But don’t take our word for it!

        • #7 - North to the Future: Start Up, Pivot, Thrive - Alaska Startup Week with Carrie Shephard

          After spending over an hour trying to get our technology working for a planned live episode... We ended up just sitting down and recording an awesome podcast episode with Carrie Shephard an entrepreneur for many years. She began her first business in direct sales in 2001 and 6 months later, left a job as a financial analyst at Intel once her income from her side hustle yielded twice as much as the day job. She has been a serial entrepreneur since...

          Today we are focusing on her efforts with Accelerate Alaska and as Co-Chair for The Alaska Startup Week! We are going to talk about the purpose of the week and how to get plugged in and involved.
