Josh Roush is not only a long time bud of mine, but the Co-Founder and Chief Brand Officer of Movetic, a full service creative agency based in San Diego. It was only a couple years ago that Josh quit his job, and decided he was going to start his own agency with one of his close friends, Andrew DiPalo. Sure enough, two years later, the business is thriving. This of course, makes for a perfect episode of the BUDCAST series on Story Riot. Josh and I discuss topics ranging from being on the exec board of our fraternity together in college, to what it's like running his own business, to how the idea of work-life balance seems to be a myth.

Zach is the Founder of Live A Great Story - a brand that creates and shares stories, hosts events, and inspires people to make life a little more interesting. After dropping out of college in Texas, Zach explored various business ideas, traveled, and eventually moved to San Diego. After many failed attempts to land a job at marketing firms, he spray painted the phrase, "Live A Great Story" on a wall in San Diego as a fun idea, and it quickly became a local obsession. Eventually, he decided to run with the idea, turning it into the business that it is today.
