Faith, Family, Freight: Julie Andrich On Leading Through Values & Volume

This episode originally aired earlier this year, and we’re bringing it back on December 25 because the message still matters. Julie Andrich, CEO of Autumn Transport, didn’t step into leadership by title — she earned it. Starting as a dispatch assistant, she worked her way through nearly every role in the company before leading a 100% owner-operator fleet built on trust, accountability, and real relationships. Nate Johnson sat down with Julie for an honest conversation about leading a family business, earning respect in trucking, navigating growth and COVID, and why values like integrity, service, and people-first leadership still matter, especially when the industry gets hard. If you need advice on retaining good drivers and want to build something that holds up over time, this is worth a listen.
