Ever look around your garage and realize half of it gathers dust? We sat down with RoundAbout co‑founder and CEO Mike Haddon to explore a smarter way to live: own what you love, access what you rarely need. RoundAbout is a local “library of things” serving Forsyth County, delivering and picking up everything from pressure washers and lawn tools to pop‑up tents, party tables, and premium kitchen gear. It’s the convenience of a well‑run rental, built for real homes, busy weekends, and those once‑a‑season jobs you don’t want to overpay for.

If you’ve wondered whether a local access economy can thrive—or if you’re weighing your own leap into entrepreneurship—this conversation brings hard‑won lessons and practical next steps.

Want the courage to leap into entrepreneurship and a practical way to protect your family’s future? We sit down with Jermaine—an entrepreneur shaped by immigrant grit and cross‑cultural identity—who’s building HeirLight, a modern estate planning app that uses AI to make wills and trusts accessible, private, and easy to start. The conversation moves beyond hustle culture to the deeper question: who are you as a builder, and what pressures do you actually want?

Ready to stop clinging to the pool railing and actually swim? We sit down with serial entrepreneur Ryan Hare, owner of John Franklin Landscapes in North Georgia, to strip away the myths around business ownership and show what it really takes to build something that lasts. From kitchen-table roofing estimates with his grandfather to design-build projects that turn blank yards into outdoor sanctuaries, Ryan shares why jumping all in beats playing it safe—and how “job security” can be a mirage when you’re not in control.

If this fired you up, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs the push, and leave a quick review so more builders can find us.
