013 | Pete Servold Shares How He went from a Dream Job to a Dream Life

In today’s episode we have Pete Servold founder of Pete’s Paleo. Pete’s Paleo is the best Paleo food delivery business that ships from both the East and West coasts. Pete has had his fair share of ups and downs, and actually did not start out with the plan to become an entrepreneur.

Pete had always dreamt of being a chef. It had been his ultimate dream and he was actually lucky enough for it to come true. He put himself through culinary school, and graduated to begin working at one of the best restaurants in Atlanta. He was well on his way to become the sous chef at that restaurant. However, his dream of becoming sous chef, didn’t exactly pan out, Pete shares exactly what happened. THIS was his most crushing NO.

After he left the restaurant, he decided that any business he ran in the future, HE would be IN CONTROL. Along the way he met his amazing wife, Sarah, who helped spur him onto become who he is today. With the help of Sarah, Pete continued to believe in himself and his abilities even when he was completely devastated from other past experiences.

If you’re ready to learn how to handle the bumps of entrepreneurism, then this episode is a MUST LISTEN!
