Trailer — What's Your Growth Point?

Why a Guy Who Walked 2,642 Miles Started a Business Podcast

What does a kitten on the side of an Oklahoma highway have to do with your stuck business? Everything. In this first episode, Ranger Kielak — SBDC business advisor, leadership coach, and the guy who walked 2,642 miles across America — introduces the Growth Point Podcast with the story that started it all: finding Walker, a tiny black kitten abandoned on the shoulder of a highway, and what that decision to pick him up has to do with every entrepreneur who's ever talked themselves out of starting something. Through three real stories from the road — a cat rescue in Georgia, a recovery home in Arkansas, and a hot sauce company in San Diego — Ranger unpacks the one lesson that kept showing up across 175 days and 2,642 miles: forward doesn't require a map. It requires a decision. This is what the show is about. Let's grow.
