In what ways has the essence of 'thinking bigger' been a transformative element in your business-building process?

 

This episode dives deep into the story of an entrepreneur and business builder who started selling lemonade stands to turn his passion into a mission of reducing the world's plastic containers. Join us as we explore how Ryan Mckenzie found his purpose and navigated through self-limiting beliefs, advice from family, and balancing a job with his own business. He covers topics such as how college led him to his mission with Tru Earth, the value of entrepreneurial spirit, and the importance of thinking bigger when starting a business.


This is a conversation about building success through resilience, understanding trends in commerce and communication, and striving to make an impact on future generations!


 

[00:00 - 07:00] From Lemonade Stands to Reducing the World's Plastic Containers

[07:01 - 12:58] Reflections on the Best and Worst Advice in Business

Key Quotes:


 

“It's really easy to give up on more money. It's really hard to give up on things that will impact the future of my children's life on this planet.” - Ryan McKenzie


 

“I think we’re this beautiful place in time where you don't need to do all of the work that you used to need to do in order to determine whether a business can be successful.” - Ryan McKenzie


 

“If somebody's not doing the thing that you want to do and they're telling you to stop doing it, they're probably not the best person to take advice from." - Ryan McKenzie
