Think running your own business means sleeping in, calling the shots, and sipping cocktails all day? Think again.

In this raw and real episode of UNDISTILLED by Red Rocks Spirits, Ashley and Willis Blankenship break down the biggest myths about being an entrepreneur, and what it actually looks like behind the scenes of Red Rocks Spirits. From 14-hour workdays to wearing every hat in the business, we’re sharing the unpolished truth about what it takes to build something from the ground up.

We talk about:

• Why “being your own boss” isn’t always as glamorous as it sounds

• The emotional rollercoaster of building a brand

• How social media can distort what entrepreneurship really looks like

• And why, even with the chaos, we wouldn't trade it for anything

Whether you’re dreaming of launching your own brand or just curious about what goes on behind the bottle, this episode is for anyone who wants the truth. No sugarcoating. No filters.

This week on Undistilled by Red Rocks Spirits, we’re hanging out with Grace Peck, the eye behind some of our favorite, soul-soaked photography of our products, Red Rocks Vodka and Red Rocks Cut Cask Whiskey. Hear Grace's story of brave leaps and treating people with...Grace!

What happens when your passion becomes exhausting? In this deeply personal episode of UNDISTILLED by Red Rocks Spirits, Ashley and Willis Blankenship open up about the very real, often invisible experience of burnout, and what it looks like when you're building a business, raising a family, and trying to stay human through it all.

We get honest about the warning signs we ignored, the pressure of trying to do everything, and the ways we’ve learned to protect our energy (hint: it doesn’t involve quitting—just recalibrating). Whether you're an entrepreneur, a creative, or just feeling stretched too thin, this episode is a real-life reminder that success doesn't mean sacrificing yourself.

📲 Grab a drink, take a breath, and join us for a conversation about boundaries, burnout, and how we’re learning to keep the fire lit without burning out.
