S2 Ep 7: Harvesting New Passions with Leroy Metcalf
10/7/2025
56:14
Hi Company Movers! Excited to bring this fun conversation to you today. Leroy grew up in Detroit, joined the military, worked in health care, moved to 8 different states, somehow found himself in production, had to go back to healthcare and now finds himself in vinter school in Walla Walla Washington. Less than 1% of winemakers in the US are Black and he is on track to join their ranks. On the podcast business side for us: This will be our last episode for a while! Robyn and I are both finding ourselves stretched thin, and since leaving Meta, we just haven't found great ways to market ourselves yet (nor had the time.) We're not going away forever, but we need to regroup and come up with a better plan for the future! We have some great conversations recorded that need to be heard still! Thank you to those of you who have been loyal listeners. You are so loved and appreciated. (And if you have ideas on how to get this heard by more ears, reach out!)
