90: Wes King Achieving Alignment
Today is part 2 of a long and interesting conversation I had with Wes King, founder and CEO of Tahoe Trail Bar, a plant-based, non-GMO, gluten-free line of awesome tasting energy bars. You might want to check out episode 89 if you haven\u2019t already and then come back for the continuation but here\u2019s a quick recap: Last week, Wes walked us through a time in his life where he was\xa0searching for something to do with himself that went beyond getting out on the trail or the snow.\xa0
Now as the CEO of Tahoe Trail Bar, he has done exactly that and he talked about how he achieved distribution throughout the Western US and sales wider than that through Amazon and their own website from a small coffee shop in Tahoe.\xa0

This week, how do you manage growth so the business doesn\u2019t consume you? What is your story and how do you tell it? How does that drive the decisions you make? When you find alignment internally and externally, in Wes\u2019 own words, it allows you to marry the thing you love to do with your ability to make a living. And that, my friends, is what\u2019s in store for you in this episode.

So with that, let\u2019s listen in and gear up for what\u2019s next.\xa0
