As we close out an incredible year, I’m taking this solo episode to reflect on the highs, the lessons, and the growth of 2024. From launching 25 impactful episodes to growing our community across platforms like YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts, this year has been nothing short of transformative.

Here’s what we covered in this special recap:

  • Podcast Growth: Celebrating the leap to nearly 7,000 YouTube subscribers and engagement across all platforms.

  • Favorite Episodes: A look back at standout moments, including guest episodes with industry legends and heartfelt family features.

  • Lessons Learned: Why chasing perfection can hold you back and how embracing imperfection helped this podcast grow.

  • Industry Trends: The rise of AI and delivery sales technology in the pizza industry, plus leadership insights on navigating challenges with a Gen Z workforce.

  • Milestones: Launching new tools like the Idea to Open book and bundle, the Pizza Pro Circle community, and impactful speaking engagements at major events.

What’s Next for 2025:

  • More episodes, guests, and exclusive content for the pizza and business community.

  • Continuing to serve and inspire new and established pizzeria operators through coaching, resources, and consulting.

  • Expanding our reach internationally (Australia, we’re coming for you!).
