HEREHey everyone! 🌟I'm thrilled to announce our latest episode of the Jaded Mechanic podcast, where we had the pleasure of sitting down with the incredible Burris family from Frog Pond Performance in North Carolina. Benji, Kristy, and Cody grace us (speaking of grace, you'll hear Ms. Callie Grace Burris in the background) with their presence at ASTE 2023, and I must say, this episode is a true gem that's packed with inspiration, wisdom, and a whole lot of heart. Here are three key takeaways that I believe will resonate with all of you:1️⃣ The Power of Family and Positivity: 🌈Listening to the Burris family share their story reminded me of the beauty that exists in the world, despite the chaos we often see. Their bond, mutual respect, and the success they've built together are nothing short of inspiring. It's a powerful reminder to appreciate our blessings and the importance of a supportive family—whether by blood or by choice. Their story is a testament to the fact that when you foster love and gratitude at home, it reflects in every aspect of life, including business.2️⃣ Building a Family Culture in Business: 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦The Burris family doesn't just talk the talk; they walk the walk by extending their family values into their shop culture. They've shown us that it's crucial to treat your team like family, creating an environment where everyone feels valued and supported. This episode highlights the significance of bringing your teams together, investing in their growth, and fostering a space where everyone can thrive. It's not just about being a biological family; it's about building a family culture that can elevate your business and the people within it.3️⃣ Community and Individual Dreams: 🌟While the Burris family is deeply rooted in their automotive business, they also understand the importance of individual dreams and giving back to the community. Callie's passion for nursing and her dedication to managing the shop's social media is a beautiful example of balancing personal aspirations with family commitments. This balance is essential for personal fulfillment and contributes to a healthier community. Their approach to business is not just about profit; it's about making a positive impact on the community they serve.🔊 Tune in to this heartwarming episode to dive deeper into these insights and learn from a family that truly embodies the spirit of togetherness, growth, and community. Trust me; you'll walk away feeling uplifted and motivated to bring these values into your own life and work.Let's spread the inspiration by sharing this episode with friends, family, and colleagues who could use a little reminder of what's truly important in life and business.Until next time, keep those wrenches turning, and remember to count your blessings! 🛠️💖#JadedMechanicPodcast #FamilyBusiness #ShopCulture #Community #AutomotiveIndustry #Inspiration Follow/Subscribe to the show on social media! TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@jeffcompton7YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@TheJadedMechanicFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100091347564232
