Shownotes by We Edit Podcasts:
Thunder Coffee was born out of a love of specialty coffee – because who doesn’t love specialty coffee? The business began as a mobile coffee cart in 2017, and despite the pandemic and a few other challenges, it is now a fully-fledged coffee shop situated in Fargo and run by Skyler Dutton, his brother Dexter, and his wife Nicole. Thunder Coffee is where Skyler gets his cup filled (in more ways than one) and it takes up a large portion of dinner time conversation. But Skyler is also a lot more than just the co-founder of Thunder Coffee. He’s also a father, a husband, a dog dad in denial, a lover of motorcycles, almost 10 years sober, and an all-around good human being. So, as you can imagine, our conversation is about a whole lot more than just business! Tune in as Skyler candidly shares the personal struggles that he has overcome, his approach to fatherhood, and what it looks like to be a professional pivoter!
