Today, Liz and I are joined by my brother Adam and his wife, Sarah, for one of our most honest conversations yet. We share the stories that rarely make it onto social media. The setbacks, risks, doubts, wins, failures, family conversations, financial pressure, and moments that shaped each of our entrepreneurial journeys.

Whether you're building a lawn care business, growing a marketing agency, launching your first company, or simply chasing a dream, we hope these stories remind you that every entrepreneur has chapters nobody else sees. (Part 1 of 2)

LAL 2026 tickets go on sale 7/15 at 6pm ET.
