À propos de ce contenu audio

The Path to Owning It goes beyond surface-level success stories to tell the real, often messy journey of building something from nothing. Join us as we follow one entrepreneur’s path at a time — from bold ideas to breakdowns, pivots, and hard-earned wins. Told entirely in their own words, these stories reveal more than just what these entrepreneurs have built — they uncover who they became along the way. This isn’t another business podcast. It’s about the lived experience of entrepreneurship and the legacy being written in real-time. If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to own your path, this is your invitation. Real stories. Raw lessons. Told by those who lived them. Powered by Fifth Third, Provide empowers entrepreneurs to build their legacies. As a leader in tech-enabled financial services for aspiring and established small business owners, Provide offers an unmatched combination of industry expertise, personalized service, and customized financial products — enabling entrepreneurs to achieve their ownership dreams, realize financial independence, and strengthen their communities. Founded in a one-bedroom San Francisco apartment in 2013, Provide was acquired by Fifth Third in 2021, and in 2023, was named one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies.

    • 67. Building Podcamp Media with Dusty Weis
      Jan 21 2026
      For some entrepreneurs, starting a business isn't a lifelong dream. It’s a moment of clarity, a calculated leap, and a willingness to build before they feel ready. In this episode, we’re speaking with Dusty Weis, founder and president of Podcamp Media, a boutique podcast production agency that helps brands tell better stories and build long-term trust with their audiences. Dusty shares how his corporate career in journalism and strategic communications led to a lightbulb moment, some quick back-of-the-napkin math, and the bold ask that helped launch his business — turning his employer into his first client. Together we’ll discuss: How Dusty knew it was time to leave corporate and bet on himself The fears and doubts he had starting a business with a young family at home How he carved out a niche in a crowded industry by going boutique What it really takes to build client trust and keep relationships for the long haul Why uncertainty and impostor syndrome don’t go away and how to keep building in spite of them Are you ready to take control of your future and start building your legacy?

    • 66. Buying your way in: The rise of entrepreneurship through acquisition, with Matthias Smith
      Dec 17 2025
      For some entrepreneurs, the time and energy it takes to start a business from scratch is a welcome challenge. And for others, it makes more sense to buy their way into business ownership — and it’s more accessible than ever thanks to game-changing, government-backed SBA 7(a) loans. So in this episode, we're speaking with Matthias Smith, founder and owner of Pioneer Capital Advisory LLC, a consulting firm that helps entrepreneurs secure SBA 7(a) financing to acquire a business. Since launching in May 2022, his firm has helped 115 business buyers close on more than $250 million of SBA 7(a) financing. And together, we'll discuss: What types of businesses do well in an entrepreneurship-through-acquisition (ETA) transaction How SBA 7(a) financing works What new business owners should consider when structuring an acquisition What due diligence mistakes small business buyers often make How small business buyers can prepare to apply for financing Are you ready to take control of your future and start building your legacy?
