In episode 032, Sam Donaghey and Michael Johnson sit down with George Appling, entrepreneur, author, and Vistage chair, to discuss building a business that aligns with personal passion.

George shares how he transitioned from corporate leadership to launching Sherwood Forest Faire, the lessons he learned about timing, self-awareness, and intentionality, and how he built businesses that thrive without him. He also dives into scalable hiring strategies, business ownership vs. legacy wealth, and why choosing the right path matters.
