This conversation introduces the Dark Horse Entrepreneur Podcast, a show that helps entrepreneurs, coaches and course creators who want to build an online business but are struggling with technology, feeling overwhelmed, and battling imposter syndrome. The host, Tracy Brinkman, has been in the coaching, course creation and online space since the 90s, and is still learning new things. He believes that the listeners are driven entrepreneurs, ready to start or restart their business and kickstart their marketing, so they can build their business into the empire it deserves to be.

Nick and Karen Fitch are a couple in their twenties who have purchased a farm and a heard of cows. One morning, Karen wakes up and is unable to move from the neck down. It is a devastating event, but the Fitches refuse to be held down by it. They have found ways to adapt and take on their challenges with optimism. The conversation is about how they have navigated their situation, started a business, and how others can find inspiration in their story.

Three years ago, the Karen woke up paralyzed from the neck down and had to spend six months across three states and seven hospitals. She was closer to death multiple times during this period. In April of 2020, the Karen was sent home from the hospital as the doctor believed it was the best way to keep her safe from infection.

HIGHLIGHTS

Be a part of the solution, not the problem. All right, so I want to be mindful of your time where I could sit here and pick your brain all day long because I’m like you.

But spinal cord injury is just kind of an underfunded area where there’s not a lot of funds going towards that. But actually, in the last year or so, there’s actually been a few new drugs that have been invited and therapies that are going into like a testing phase with the FDA.

 

And that’s the bulk of our income through that. And then I also do a little bit of social media consulting and stuff with people on Facebook stuff because, I don’t know, that’s one of my passions.

 

And then here they are given with cuddle cows. You guys got to check this out. The link will be down in the show notes, everybody. I’m going to put all your links, the Facebook link, the TikTok link is going to be down there.

 

And if this business ends up becoming more part of our income, that would be great. But I would say we started this mainly for how we become part of the solution to find a cure for style for style burden.
