Summary

Life is going to throw many obstacles in your way.  Chris Radomski, co-founder of Duke Spirits, has encountered his own share of harsh life blows along his journey. On today’s episode of the Tom Ferry Podcast Experience, Chris and I sit down in his beautiful home to talk about being uber-resourceful and how he found different ways to stay afloat after not being able to get hired after graduating with numerous degrees and passing the bar. We get real and raw about going through the big let downs that life throws at you and how all great things do take time to cultivate, arrive and thrive.  Chris also shares how he started his entrepreneurial journey in the wine business with a handshake. He also goes over how he works to check off all the authenticity boxes with Hundred Acre Wine Group and Duke Spirits. We also duke it out and talk about the history behind Duke Spirits, John Wayne’s bourbon whiskey. I highly recommend listening to this episode if you’ve been experiencing some ups and downs in your path, looking for new ways to improve your brand story or maybe just a fan of a good bourbon whiskey, then tune in!
