Building the Dream: The Debt-Free Way (Feat. Jim and Wanda Sharpe)

SmartPro Financial

In this episode, Rick Godfrey II interviews Jim and Wanda Sharpe who started out like many small business owners—just an average American family with big dreams. Jim unexpectedly stepped into the family plumbing business after high school to lend a hand to his stepfather, thinking it was just a summer job. But life had other plans.

After marrying his high school sweetheart, Wanda, the couple decided to take their business—and their future—seriously. 

They discovered Ramsey Solutions and embraced a debt-free lifestyle, transforming not just their finances but the way they ran their business. Along the way, Jim connected with industry mentors who offered game-changing advice, helping them turn their vision into reality.

Join us as we share real stories of resilience, teamwork, and sacrifice from entrepreneurs who built their American Dream by following simple, proven financial principles. 

Whether you're a seasoned entrepreneur or just starting out, this podcast offers inspiration, practical advice, and the tools you need to grow your business—without borrowing a dime.
