#55: What Does Coffee Teach Us About Community, Friendship, and Entrepreneurship? [TRENT HOWARD]
Manage episode 399340535 series 3434886
You know that feeling when you get to hang out with a friend that fills your cup? And y'all could be just chillin' yet you're still having a major blast? Well today we get to hear from one of those people.
Trent Howard is a friend, a business owner, and he stood next to me in my wedding. Just like the X-Men, Trent has a super power of his own - community. With a background in petroleum engineering, he decided to take his talents away from the sure-fire financial security of sitting on some oil rig in Oklahoma and move with six friends to the busy metropolis of DFW.
Together, he, Carson Kidd, and Joel Agimudie began building a business, now known as Moravian Coffee. Moravian is a coffee roastery that connects people around the world with specialty coffee. If you're familiar with the podcast, you know that I love CONNECTION.
Connection is the beginning of opportunity, and opportunity creates connection.
In this episode, expect to hear:
- why young adults often move away from friends
- how a lucrative job can sometimes derail our life goals
- about a helpful framework to navigate conflict
- when Trent decided to drop the cheddar and build a business
- what it's like to be an entrepreneur with your best friends
- the main reasons why people choose to live away from community
- whether being a good friend helps you with being a husband/wife
- the story of how we first met and the oddball nature of it
- when prioritizing community can elevate your entrepreneurial pursuit
This is the first IN-PERSON conversation of 2024! It was an orchestra of fun. I'm counting each minute as a blessing and I'm excited to see what other conversations are in store for this year. Thanks for following along!
