Explicit content warning
05/15/21 • 86 min
Mike Stojic is the Co-owner of "Revival 1869: A Drinkery" located in downtown Clayton, NC. Mike's dream was to create something special and not be stuck in a 9-5 working a meaningless job. Thus he created Revival 1869. Rather than "just another bar," Revival has to be experienced. Then came March 2020 and everything changed. Hear Mike's story about how instead of becoming a statistic (70% restaurant closures) he and his partner Maleah adapted and overcame. Great story! THanks Mike!!!
We discussed the art of entrepreneurship and surviving the past year in one of the hardest hit industries. Mikes talks about his ways of staying mentally healthy during adversity. Mike is has been a guest many times on my old podcast and it is always fun to have him in studio! I figured we'd go down some rabbit holes and we certainly did!
We also have Bill Butler, co-coordinator of the Knoxville Silkies Hike, hopping on to discuss the 5/22 hike in Knoxville, TN.
