Every person gets the same 24 hours in a day.
The difference between average and exceptional often comes down to how those hours are used — and who you choose to impact with them.
In this episode of What Do You Do With Your 24?, Tyler Rickstrew sits down with David Medford, owner and operator of Dave’s Detail & Aftermarket Headquarters in Wichita, Kansas.
David has built a reputation in the automotive world for quality work and attention to detail, with his shop handling everything from professional detailing to aftermarket upgrades and full shop services.
But running a business is only part of how David uses his 24 hours.
He also serves as an Auto Collision and Refinishing Instructor with Wichita Public Schools, teaching students at South High School in what is currently the only collision and refinishing program offered at the high school level in the entire state of Kansas.
Through that program, David is doing more than teaching a trade — he’s helping students discover careers, develop skills, and build confidence in a path many people overlook.
Outside the shop and classroom, David is also a coach, a family man, and someone deeply committed to investing in the next generation.
In this episode we talk about:
• Building a business in the automotive industry • Why skilled trades are more important than ever • Creating opportunities for young people through hands-on learning • Balancing business ownership, teaching, and family life • Using your 24 hours to build people, not just products
If you care about entrepreneurship, mentorship, skilled trades, and investing in the next generation, this episode is one you’ll want to hear.
