In this episode, Ken Freire sits down with Frank Ammons, founder of Exodus Business, to unpack what it really means to take calculated risks as an entrepreneur. Frank shares how belief drives behavior, why modeling success minimizes risk, and how he scaled a brand-new water filtration company to nearly $1.5M by applying a simple “zag” strategy. They also dive into blind spots in the coaching industry, the danger of chasing trends, simplifying your offer, and how to build a legacy rooted in faith, confidence, and velocity.
