🎙 EPISODE DESCRIPTION

Episode Title: What It Takes to Be a Successful Entrepreneur

What does real entrepreneurship actually look like?

It’s not the Instagram highlight reel. It’s raw eggs for dinner because the power is off. It’s “eating your profits.” It’s driving for Uber to keep your dream alive. And it’s doing it all again if that’s what it takes.

In this powerful and honest conversation, host Vicki Noethling sits down with returning guest Tanner Haas, a driven entrepreneur who started his first company at just 18 years old—and sold it two years later. Tanner shares what it really means to build something from nothing, endure the hardest seasons, and stay committed when comfort isn’t an option.

This episode goes beyond startup clichés. Tanner opens up about the difficult realities of building a company from the ground up, the mentors and influences who shaped his mindset, and the lessons he learned from surviving lean seasons that most people never see. He discusses the most challenging parts of launching a business, the turning points that defined his journey, and how gratitude and resilience have fueled his continued growth.

You’ll also hear about the cutting-edge communication technology he’s working on and how he’s using his success to create impact beyond profit.

If you’ve ever wondered what it truly takes to succeed as an entrepreneur, this episode delivers an unfiltered look at grit, sacrifice, vision, and long-term commitment.

This is startup life—real, raw, and relentless.
