EP 619: Navigating the Woods and Business: Phil Mendoza’s Journey
Hey, all you hunting aficionados, Cody Rich here, and I’ve got a killer episode for you on The Rich Outdoors Podcast. This week, I’m sitting down with the one and only Phil Mendoza – entrepreneur, seasoned hunter, and all-around outdoorsman. We’re delving deep into Phil’s recent hunting escapades, and trust me, this season was extra special as he shared the woods with his son.
We get into the nitty-gritty of what it’s like to have a new hunting partner, exploring the intricacies of communication on the field. Phil shares the joys and challenges of witnessing his son’s journey through numerous hunting experiences. But that’s not all – we’re also pulling back the curtain on entrepreneurship. Phil’s not just a hunter; he’s a juggler of multiple businesses, including one with his dad. We dissect the dynamics of working with family and the delicate balance between personal and professional relationships.
Now, hold on to your hats, because Phil’s got a new project in the works – he’s creating Colorado’s ultimate hunting trade show. It’s a venture that’s not for the faint of heart, but that’s what I love about entrepreneurs like Phil – they dream big, take on colossal risks, and strive to build something truly exceptional.
So, whether you’re a seasoned entrepreneur or just a hunting enthusiast, this episode is packed with insights, stories, and a glimpse into the mind of a visionary outdoorsman. Grab a cup of coffee, settle in, and join us as we navigate the highs and lows of hunting, entrepreneurship, and family dynamics. You won’t want to miss a minute of this engaging conversation with Phil Mendoza.
Just got the Tricer BC Tripod and this thing is a dream. This is the lightest tripod I have owned feels purpose built for how I use a tripod as a hunter. I just want to say this thing is beefy as heck, don’t get it twisted just because it’s light doesn’t mean it chensy. Tricer Made one of the biggest innovations I have ever seen on a tripod and once you see it make so much sense. The legs are thicker at the base which give it a super stable base. The New BC and AC Tripods are shipping now so go get your hands on one before season. Use the Code TRO and save 10% TricerUSA.com TricerUSA Fast, Light, Simple.
