This recognition is a huge milestone, and we’re beyond grateful for your support along the way. Thank you to everyone who tunes in and engages with us—you’ve truly made this journey worthwhile.

Thanks to you, what began as an idea back in 2019 has grown into a podcast reaching listeners in 71 countries, sharing stories that resonate with the blue-collar world.

In this episode, we tackle a crucial topic for business owners: how to retain employees when times get tough. With markets fluctuating and businesses facing uncertainty, it’s easy to overlook the value of culture and connection in keeping a team intact. We discuss why retention strategies should start with active listening and how small, sincere gestures can make all the difference. Leaders who prioritize genuine engagement and address team feedback head-on often see stronger loyalty and commitment, even in challenging times.

Join us as we explore practical, no-cost ways to reinforce your team’s connection to the company—strategies that can keep morale up and reduce turnover when it matters most.
