Starting a business is hard enough, but starting one with a mission bigger than turning a profit can feel like navigating a battlefield. The obstacles are real, like cash flow challenges or forces beyond your control, but so are the rewards when your work changes lives.
In this episode, we're talking about what it takes to build a business that stands for something. Matt "Griff" Griffin, West Point graduate, Army Ranger, and co-founder of Combat Flip Flops, shares how he transformed lessons from special operations into a global brand manufacturing products in conflict and post-conflict zones. You'll hear the hard truths about bootstrapping, the difference between nonprofit and for-profit mission-driven models, and why "fail cheap, learn fast" might be your best strategy for impact.
