In this special on-location episode of the I Fired My Boss podcast, host Dan Claps sits down with Voda Cleaning and Restoration franchise owners Sean Gilmore and Keith Nash live from Madison, Wisconsin during the inaugural Voda franchise owner conference. Sean, based in the Carolinas, and Keith, operating in Chattanooga, reflect on their unique journeys into franchising—both driven by a desire to escape the limitations of corporate life and build meaningful, impactful businesses. Keith shares a powerful story about a life-changing moment helping a veteran during an emergency cleanup, which affirmed his purpose in the restoration industry. Meanwhile, Sean opens up about the grind of the early days and his long-term vision of building an empire to leave a legacy for his nieces.
Together, the three dive into the realities of entrepreneurship—navigating mental and financial lows, creating intentional company culture, and finding harmony between personal and professional life. Dan shares his own transformative moments, including the emotional weight of stewarding a growing franchise brand and staying mentally strong under pressure. This episode is a raw, real, and inspiring look into what it means to go all in—not just financially, but emotionally and mentally—on a business that serves both community and purpose.
