How It's Built

Billie Cook

How It's Built is a podcast designed to bring the stories of Southern California business owners, non-profits, and entrepreneurs to the community. In working with these individuals we found their stories to be the most interesting around, but typically get overlooked as the attention is directed towards the biggest brands. Our focus is less around the company, and more on the people behind the company (how they started it, where it's been, where it is, and where it's going). We want to have these stories told to inspire the next generation of business owners, non-profit founders, and entrepreneurs.

    One Atta Time (Atta)

    Our first Non-Profit - One Atta Time. Sean never desired to start a Non-Profit, but felt the need to solve a problem. I love hearing stories like this from people who are passionate about solving problems, and take it upon themselves to go out an do things to make a difference. Water is such a fundamental need, and something that seems like in today's world everybody would have access to drinkable water.

    Flite - Keith Miller

    When I think of a 'serial entrepreneur' somebody like Keith Miller comes to mind. Since I've known him he has always had some sort of side project going on (some of which seem crazier than others). In the end it's been a pretty logical progression to where he is now. Passion is what drives him, and he's most passionate about soccer (which if you know Keith you already knew this). I always love when people can turn their passions into how they earn a living.
