The Chad Shipley Show

Herb Cratty stopped by to talk about his life and love with running.

My guest today is truly truly special. His name is Ed Meyer and he is the exact reason I love doing this show. As the founder and CEO of Tri-State Furniture he has found lots success, as most would define it, but that is just one of the many reasons I wanted Ed to come on to the show. Despite his "success" in business, what really draws me to Ed is how much this guy cares about helping and giving back to people in need. We touch on business, leadership, poverty, making an impact, leaving a legacy, addiction, depression, anxiety, and much much more! It was an incredibly spectacular conversation in which Ed, and his brilliant character, shines through and through. I hope that you enjoy as much as I did!

Strap in because Brock is going to blow you away as he unveils his addiction, his road to recovery, and his path to success.

A fun dive into scaling and exploiting a new and untapped market. M@C Discount solves the returns problem for Amazon and other big online retailers. How? They buy the return goods and auction it back to consumers at a fraction of the cost.

A lot of people will say that they want something, but very few are willing to do the work required to get there. Alexis started over 3 years ago with a fire in her eyes and a commitment to herself to do whatever it takes.

The amazing Dr. Nate is back with another fun and insightful conversation. I had amazing feedback from the first episode and asked Dr. Nate to come back on to share more of his amazing life wisdom!

When I asked Eric, host of the Eric McKenna Project, to come onto the show I was looking for a life of experiences to unfold in front of me.

There’s a big mountain that might be calling your name, and there’s a path waiting to be carved. You won’t know the way, none of us do, but that’s what makes this one life we have worth living...
