In this episode, Ricky Regalado, a powerhouse serial entrepreneur, shares a heartfelt look into how his father’s relentless work ethic shaped his own journey. Ricky’s dad, Jose Luis Regalado, an immigrant from Mexico, set the bar high with his sacrifices and dedication, and Ricky’s candid about how that influenced his own path from feeling ashamed of his work to building a successful family business.

  • Embracing the struggles as part of your hero’s journey and pushing past your limits (0:52:13 - 0:53:14)
