#78 | - Lisa and Gene Meadows Entrepreneurial and Adventurous Kindred Spirits

Lisa and Gene met in Tennessee and immediately found their compatibility groove. Gene is the stable "wind beneath the wings" and gives Lisa her space to plunge into a variety of business ventures. Growing up around horses and generations of Hat Masters fueled Lisa's love for western wear. Coupled with her entrepreneurial spirit, Lisa has had numerous opportunities to spread her wings all over the country... including Hawaii, where she and her family were personally affected by the Lahaina Fires of 2023. They moved back to the continental 48 where they found a home in Murphy, NC. They opened and currently run Indigo Mountain Traders; an ecclectic store that features some local artisans' work along with Lisa's own hat creations. Follow their journey through victory, loss, and making lemonade out of life's lemons.

While he was born in the United States, Kent spent the majority of his growing-up years in Canada, where he met his wife, Trina, at a summer camp.

#75 | Born on the 4th of July: The Green Beret Commander Who Lost His Leg—but Never Quit Fighting - John Wayne Walding

John Wayne will be the first to tell you not to believe his resume and all the accolades because that doesn't tell the full story. Growing up with his grandparents because of his parents' struggle with drug use was the beginning of a life filled with curve balls, trials, and lessons learned. But John decided early on to live the life of a victor and not a victim. He determined to use each experience as a chance to learn, grow, and be the best version of himself possible; to the extent of being the first amputee to become a Green Beret sniper. After hearing John's story, you'll be inspired to reach for the stars.
