They didn't have much of a business plan. But they did have some timeless wisdom that Brent's and Josh's parents and grandparents had taught them--the "greatest of all time" principles for good living that can also be used as a foundation for any business.

In G.O.A.T. Wisdom, for the first time, Ridge and Kilmer-Purcell present the twelve principles that made the biggest difference in their entrepreneurial journey, and show how these principles are relevant for anyone ready to defy the odds and grow a brand that matters.

Whether launching your own venture, growing a side hustle, or looking to make a bigger impact on your company, G.O.A.T. Wisdom will give you the tools, the confidence, and the inspiration to build something meaningful and lasting that customers will value and feel they can't do without.
