It's First Friday, and that means Spike Lou and Rich are joined by David Swett Jr. This time, David brought along a special guest: Don Hardin, veteran construction executive, entrepreneur, and founder of the Don Hardin Group.

From leading major construction projects across Nashville and throughout the country to developing leaders, Don shares lessons that extend far beyond construction. This conversation is packed with practical wisdom on entrepreneurship, leadership, legacy, decision-making, and what it takes to build something that lasts. Don can easily narrate 20 more chapters.
