What do a surfboard, a postal route, and a tire shop have in common? They’re all part of the journey toward purpose, passion, and authenticity.
In this episode, I caught up with Burt Dew from Chapel Hill Tire—and we covered a lot of ground. From Burt’s raw and honest story of post-divorce transition and co-parenting, to Bert’s rise from the shop floor to store manager, we explored what it really means to live—and lead—with heart.
We unpacked:
The power of showing up authentically
Building customer relationships through “automotive hospitality”
How life’s setbacks often become the turning points
Why you should do what you love—and love who you’re becoming
This isn’t just a conversation. It’s a reflection on work, life, leadership, and what it means to better the pond—one ripple at a time. Well, not really, cause Burt is making wave’s.
