Episode 30 - No Excuses - Just Potential (With Chance Summers - 1689 Cigars)

This week Terry interviews an intriguing young man who has made his mark in an impressive
way in the business world. Meet Chance Summers, a serial entrepreneur who founded 1689
Cigars, among other businesses, and had the privilege of presenting President Trump’s
Inauguration Cigar.
While his beginnings were not promising - broken home with low income, no healthy father
figure, relatives with ties to the mafia, and more - he shares how he eventually discovered his
God-given potential and came to chart a path of success that has enriched many people’s lives,
both within his organization and outside of it. He talks about life lessons that led him to
cultivate a team that is driven by vision and mission to make the world a better place and gives
practical advice to help other leaders do the same. His story is a powerful and inspiring journey
that will help anyone with a challenging past realize that the disadvantages you’ve experienced
don’t have to be excuses that hold you back from the destiny you were born to live!
