What you'll get

Dustin Riddle, who runs Junkernaut, a junk removal and crisis cleanup company in Asheville, tells The Epic Entrepreneurs, a podcast from a firm that sells business coaching to local service owners, about hoarding jobs where the first task is helping the client work through what is hard, and about passing items on locally instead of landfilling them. He also describes the unseen sacrifices of ownership and how he asked his closest supporters to act as an informal board, a good listen for anyone whose work takes them into people's homes at hard times.
