What makes someone leave a big city life behind and return to their small-town roots? For Nick Graham, the answer is simple: the Outer Banks isn't just home—it's who he is.
In this episode, Randy catches up with Nick, a local insurance agent whose deep ties to the Outer Banks go back generations. From growing up surfing and fishing with family to building a thriving career in a tight-knit coastal community, Nick shares what brought him back after college—and why he's never looked back.
Key themes:
Choosing purpose and place over prestige
How to build a career in a referral-based town
The power of community, networking, and doing the work
If you've ever wondered what it's like to grow up where others vacation—or how to turn local roots into long-term success—this one's for you.
