In this episode of Resilient Kings Podcast, I sit down with the incredible William Maloney, aka Mr. CTAE. With 37 years of experience in architecture, construction, business management, and education, he’s seen it all. We dive deep into the importance of trades, why college isn’t the only path to success, and how young people can build high-paying careers without drowning in student debt.
William also shares powerful stories about his father—one of the first Black men to own a concrete plant in South Carolina—and the lessons he learned growing up in a family of entrepreneurs. We talk about the struggles of going against the system, the importance of resilience, and how his upbringing shaped his approach to work, family, and leadership.
Plus, we get into the power of hands-on skills, self-reliance, and what it really means to build generational wealth. This one is packed with game, inspiration, and straight-up truth. Don’t miss it!.
