From his humble beginnings in a farming community in Central Oregon to co-founding, growing, and then selling the crowdfunding platform, YouCaring, Luke Miner's entrepreneurial journey is extraordinary.

He talks about wanting to be a pastor like his dad when he was younger. Luke also shares about his first business - a Christmas tree lot - and how it helped him learn about running a business.

Luke is candid about how it felt to sell the business he helped create. His account of the process, the highs and lows, and the life-changing outcome is a must-listen.

Luke also discusses what he's doing now. He's focused on his family and running a real estate company called Downtown Collection. He wants to make Redding, California, a great place for his kids to live when they grow up.

This episode isn't just about business. It's about life, dreams, and how to make them come true. It's a great listen for anyone who wants to start a business, already owns one, or just appreciates a good story.
