    How to Build a Million Dollar Business from Scratch | Tori Bolt Entrepreneur Story

    In this episode of Circuit of Success, Brett Gilliland sits down with entrepreneur Tori Bolt, co-founder of Bolt Farm Treehouse, to unpack how she and her husband built a million-dollar business from scratch. What started as a simple honeymoon experience in a handcrafted treehouse has evolved into a luxury, adults-only glamping destination set on 55 acres in the mountains of Tennessee. Featuring stunning treehouses, domes, and the country’s first mirror cabins, Bolt Farm has become a one-of-a-kind retreat designed to help couples reconnect, slow down, and experience the power of intentional environments.   Tori’s journey didn’t begin in entrepreneurship. She started her career in broadcast news in Houston, Texas, where she met her future husband, Seth Bolt of the band NEEDTOBREATHE. Their story took a dramatic turn when they decided to risk everything, leaving behind stable careers to pursue a vision rooted in nature, service, and connection. From living in a camper with no running water to facing regulatory shutdowns and starting over from zero, Tori shares the real challenges behind building a business. One of the most pivotal moments came when they generated over $1 million in pre-sales before even owning their land, proving the power of belief, creativity, and betting on yourself. Beyond the business success, this conversation dives into the mindset and faith that fueled their journey. Tori opens up about overcoming fear, developing an abundance mindset, and staying committed through the hardest seasons of life. Together, she and Seth have built more than a brand. They’ve created an experience that impacts relationships and transforms lives. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, business owner, or someone looking to take a leap of faith, this episode will challenge you to think bigger, act boldly, and build a future greater than your past.   Watch the Full Episode Here!
