In this vibrant episode of Down Home Dirt, host Dusta dives into an unfiltered, entrepreneurial deep-dive with powerhouse businesswoman Katie, founder of the marketing firm One Eleven Group and coaching company Academy 222. After a quick spotlight on Oak City Admins, a go-to resource for virtual admin support, the conversation shifts gears into the real grit behind building multiple businesses from the ground up.

Katie opens up about the mindset it takes to thrive as an entrepreneur, especially when the odds (and the algorithm) are stacked against you. From overcoming adversity and tuning into gut instinct, to building an authentic presence on social media, she doesn't sugarcoat the hustle.

Together, she and Dusta unpack the generational shifts in how people view wealth, debunk the illusion of work-life balance during the relentless build mode phase, and spotlight why cookie-cutter packages just don’t cut it when it comes to serving clients well.

It’s a bold, honest look at the modern entrepreneurial journey—equal parts strategy, soul, and straight talk.
