Whiskey Wisdom and Small Business Revelations with Steve Beecham

The Small Business Safari

What do battling imaginary winds on the golf course and the quirks of small business ownership have in common? Join us on this "Small Business Safari Adventure," where laughter and lessons go hand in hand. We kick off with a hilarious golf anecdote before diving into the real-life ups and downs of being a small business owner. As summer looms, we also share our exciting travel plans to Kiowa, Tahoe, and Chicago, where we’ll attend the National Association of the Remodeling Industry's board meeting. Plus, we can't help but discuss the rising craze of pickleball, complete with a funny injury story and our own spirited matches.
Meet our guest, Steve Beecham, a Roswell, Georgia native whose tales are as rich as the bourbon he loves. Steve has transformed an old house in downtown Alpharetta into his “bourbon barn” office, and his journey through the Wizard Academy in Austin, Texas is nothing short of fascinating. From his newfound passion for bourbon to living car-free in a tightly-knit community, Steve’s stories encapsulate a unique blend of entrepreneurial spirit and local charm. Plus, he’s got a 1966 Chevy pickup truck that just adds to his storytelling flair.
We're also exploring the world of whiskey and bourbon, from Angel's Envy to High West whiskey and classic names like Jim Beam. You’ll learn about the origins and characteristics of these spirits, and why water quality matters. Our discussion doesn’t stop at whiskey; it winds through the psychological impact of mortgage interest rates and how local politics can be leveraged for business networking. Whether you're a whiskey enthusiast, a small business owner, or just someone who loves a good story, this episode promises a blend of humor, insight, and inspiration.
