Clay Weldon is not only an incredible business leader and devoted husband and Dad, but I’m proud to say, he’s also my (older, and probably wiser) brother. Having known him all my life, I can attest to the fact that he’s the real deal. He cares deeply about building solid relationships, about helping others, about investing in his team, about persevering through the hard times, and about leaving a legacy that his 4 kids can be proud of. Like many small business owners, Clay has been through some pretty serious ups and downs, but one thing is certain…he never gives up. In this episode, you’ll hear some of these stories of how he’s transition hardship into a thriving business, and we also dive into an exciting new venture that he and his beautiful Jules are embarking on to support and care for their son, Luke. Clay is a rare find among business leaders, and I’m proud to bring you this episode of goodness.

Our guest in this episode is one beautiful soul. Sarah Peacock is an award winning singer songwriter from a little town in Georgia who now finds herself in Nashville, TN. She’s built her music career from the ground up one gig at a time. Her heart is on display through every word that she writes and sings, as she graciously invites the listener into more. She’s known the hardships of losing it all as she fought to buy back the rights to her songs, as she watched her tour bus burn up, as she wrestled with walking away from music completely, and as she said goodbye recently to her best and most faithful friend, Gibson. But through it all, her love for music, for people, and for life has done nothing but grow stronger. We’re in for a real treat in this podcast as we get to know Sarah. And there’s even a special something waiting for you at the end. We won’t be surprised if, after this podcast, Sarah’s music becomes a regular on your playlists. Listen in as we’re invited into the music-filled world of Sarah Peacock.

Sarah lost her tour bus to a fire, and insurance didn’t cover a thing. Since that time, she’s signed with a new label, released a new album – “Beauty In The Ashes”, and is getting ready to hit the road again on another tour. In order to do this, she’s needs new transportation, so she’s doing a Kickstarter to raise the necessary funds. Her Kickstarter campaign is only live until this Friday, July 27th. If you feel so moved, we’d love for you to check out her page here – http://kck.st/2s25CjZ – and consider giving a little to help a talented girl out! 🙂

Josh Watts – founder of MedTrust Medical Transport serving Charleston, Georgetown, and Murrells inlet, SC – was taught early on by his father that if you’re going to own a company, make it be a company worth owning. This involves making MedTrust not only a company worth working for, but a company worth working with. He and his team have worked hard to do things differently in the industry and raise the bar by measuring their own performance. As a result, they are in the process of tripling – yes, I said tripling – their size over the last several months. Josh is fiercely committed to his team, his family, and his own personal growth and development as a leader. In this episode we talk about how he recovered from the loss of his partner, Buddy Koon, who was a father figure to him and how he maintains Buddy’s legacy in the company. And we also talk about how to build a good team and what keeps those good people from wanting to leave. Whether you sitting behind the wheel stuck in traffic, on a walk, or sipping a cup of coffee (or wine), we’re pleased to introduce you to Josh Watts… a man on a mission to help as many people as he can.
