Description

⚠️ Note: This is a legacy episode from my Intentional Documentary® days. I’ve kept it in the archive because it holds enduring wisdom on visibility, creativity, and family-first entrepreneurship, especially relevant for story-led business owners navigating depth and direction.

...

What does it mean to grow a values-led business without burning out, and still show up as a present parent and creative human?

In this conversation, Pat Flynn shares how his family-first approach shaped his work, why storytelling builds better brands, and what he hopes to see change in education. This is a generous, honest conversation about entrepreneurship, boundaries, and building something worth sustaining.

Topics: 

• How Pat’s podcast with his son became a memory-keeping practice
• The origin story of Switchpod and product-based entrepreneurship
• Why entrepreneurship should be part of early education
• Business as a vehicle for service, problem-solving, and relationship-building
• Superfans and creating lasting customer connections
• Time, energy, and physical boundaries in entrepreneurial life
• Why small wins can matter more than big launches
• The joy of missing out (JOMO) and choosing slow growth
