Luke Smiley, co-founder of the Nashville-based fast-casual brand Radish, shares his journey from the world of corporate finance to launching a restaurant concept with his wife, chef and influencer Amanda Frederickson. Luke unpacks the transition from a structured corporate schedule to the freedom of entrepreneurship, the realities of scaling a brick-and-mortar business without venture capital, and the dynamics of co-founding a company with a spouse. He also dives deep into leadership, debunking the myth that "millennials don't want to work" by revealing why culture is actually the root of the problem.
