RECENT EPISODES

America is in a Blue Collar Crisis (w/ Kory and Ali Anderson)

This conversation between Jason Sisneros, Kory Anderson, and Ali Anderson breaks down one of the biggest threats most business owners are not paying attention to: America’s skilled trades crisis. Foundries are closing. Generational knowledge is disappearing. Young people are not replacing the tradesmen retiring out. And the same industries we depend on for defense, infrastructure, energy, transportation, manufacturing, and national security are running out of people who can actually build, repair, cast, weld, machine, and produce. Kory and Ali Anderson are on the front lines of that fight. Through Anderson Industries, Dakota Foundry, Muncie Castings, and Iron Warrior Academy, they are working to preserve American manufacturing, rebuild the skilled trades pipeline, acquire and strengthen foundry operations, and inspire the next generation to step into work that actually keeps the country running

Why You Stop Short (When Other Business Owners Never Give Up) w/ Mairin Moore Cane

In this episode of Built to Exit, host Jason Sisneros talks with Mairin Moore Kane about how leaders can define themselves regardless of circumstance and why the story of your life is shaped by the decisions you make when everything seems to be going wrong. They cover Mairin’s journey from running multiple businesses across several states to being bedridden for three years with chronic illness, the identity crisis that can happen when productivity disappears, and how leaders often tie their worth to performance until life forces them to rethink everything. They also talk about the turning point that changed everything for Mairin. In the middle of her lowest moment, she realized that even though everything around her was falling apart, she could still decide how her story would end. That decision reshaped her leadership, her purpose, and the way she now helps others rise through adversity.
