On episode 18, I talked with Preston and Lauren Lund, five months before the launch of their new restaurant, The Lazy Bee. We talk about how a dream that God planted in both of them came back around in the midst of disappointments and searching and the events that led to something special.

What made the episode extra special is not only that Preston and Lauren are friends of mine, but that I’m releasing this episode right before their Grand Opening and I’ve had the pleasure of tasting the food and experiencing in person what was only a vision all those months ago.

I’m excited for them and look forward to going back. There are so many takeways from the interview, from following a dream when you have a family, to not giving up, to recognizing the right timing and more.

If you’ve ever felt like something was on your heart that you were meant to do…and if you’ve felt like giving up… take heart. And listen on….
