Everyone has a story about building something. Sometimes, it's a house, sometimes it's a business, and sometimes it's reinventing yourself. Today's guest has done all three.

Join Mike Allred and friends (Dave, Todd and The Captain) as they are joined by builder and home designer, Mike Fortune. Mike spent years building homes before making a successful transition into the world of design.

Since the boys were off this week, we decided to re-release Friday's discussion. We dive a bit into the hardships we face in life, and how discomfort can actually bring benefits to our lives. We also discuss a timely problem that we see in politics and campaigns, both local and national.

Join Mike Allred and George Denton as they talk leadership, ethics and integrity in the campaign season, review how modern success can create modern misery, and the idea of why we should value physical hardship and discomfort.

So, if you heard Friday's conversation, then YOU get the day off, also. Although, perhaps this is the opportunity to catch up on a missed episode! Either way, we're glad you're here. We hope you will Listen, Like and Share!
