Stage: 2. Transformation

Fast growth sounds like the dream... until you're in the middle of it. Andy Ridge knows the pressure that comes with a season of rapid business expansion. Through his involvement in a high-trust, high-accountability peer group called the Counsel, Andy found the perspective and support he needed to navigate the stress, make wise decisions, and keep sight of what matters most. In this first episode of our Stories of Transformation series, Andy shares how that community shaped the choices that will define his future. Sometimes it takes a trusted circle to notice the weight you’re carrying before it becomes too heavy to hold. If you're ready to find the peer support needed to keep your business, marriage, and faith thriving through every season, discover if the Counsel might be the right fit for you.

Derich, the MD of Klipfontein Farms and D&M Fresh Products (a fruit packing company), shares his journey of leaving the security of a well-paying job to start a family business. He encourages fellow entrepreneurs to face their many challenges with courage, to ensure they have a solid business strategy, and to cultivate strong industry relationships rather than trying to do everything on their own.
