Today, we have an incredible guest, Brad Pedersen who shares a lot of wisdom, his entrepreneur story, having a life plan and a business plan, how he gets fired from a company he founded, the foundational values versus flexible values, and the 4 C’s in life that really build real wealth and legacy! Brad Pedersen is a husband, father, founder, author, mentor, adventurer, and Co-founder and Chairman at Pela and Lomi, a waste innovation company that sells revolutionary appliances that turns waste into Lomi Earth and solves daily food waste problems. He wrote an upcoming book, “Startup Santa”. This man also developed a toy company, "bootstrapping" and became one of the largest Canadian toy companies.

However, in the mid-2000s, the company struggled financially and was forced into restructuring, which eventually ended up bankrupting a few years later. Challenges in business really empowered Brad to create better business models. A life designed by intention is something Brad is inspired to for most of his life. Grateful with the abundance surrounding him in health, family, connections, and businesses. He is now prioritizing his life design to create a legacy that impacts the world. Brad used his creative genius to solve another problem – waste! Some Questions I Ask: Why are you doing amazing, and what is amazing in your world? What are LOMI & PELA, and how do they come about?
