In this episode of We The People, Gates Garcia sits down with NASCAR driver and podcast host Corey LaJoie — the man behind the “Stacking Pennies” mantra.
Corey opens up about growing up in the garage, chasing his dream of racing at the Cup Series level, and how fatherhood and faith reshaped what winning really means. He shares the story behind his famous Samaritan’s Feet sponsorship at Watkins Glen — where he gave up a month’s salary to put shoes on kids who’d never owned a pair — and how that moment changed his life forever.
From the wild stories of NASCAR rivalries and living life at 200 miles an hour to slowing down for his wife and three boys, Corey’s honesty about the tension between success and sacrifice will inspire you to stack your own pennies — tiny choices that add up to something bigger than victory lane.
