In this episode of Torch Talk, Lindsey sits down with Nick Pickrel, founder of Kingsway Services, to talk about what it means to build a business where faith, grit, and leadership intersect.
From mowing lawns at age 11 to launching a values-driven asphalt company in the middle of a pandemic, Nick shares a candid look at the realities of entrepreneurship, like what he’s learned, what he’s let go of, and how he’s built a culture that refuses to compromise on integrity.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
• How Kingsway was born from both market opportunity and mission
• Why EOS became the framework Nick needed to scale sustainably
• What happens when you remove revenue as the end goal
• How to lead from your faith without preaching a word
• The hard (and holy) work of separating identity from business success
This episode is packed with honesty, humility, and practical lessons for anyone building something with a bigger purpose in mind.
