In this heart-filled and high-energy episode, Jeremiah Isley welcomes longtime friend and multi-business owner Kevin Nisly to In The Ellipsis. From falling off a roof to selling award-winning candy bars, Kevin's journey is full of divine twists and turns. He shares how an early injury, a powerful mentorship, and a leap of faith turned into a decades-long career in fundraising, real estate, coffee roasting, and purpose-driven entrepreneurship. With candid honesty, Kevin breaks down the highs and lows of running multiple ventures—including Diamond Fundraising, J&K Distribution, and Rusty Creek Coffee—while raising a family and navigating major life transitions.

Kevin talks about the painful failure and wild reinvention his team faced during COVID, and the community-centered wisdom that helped them pivot from zero revenue to thriving again. From homemade coffee roasters to eBay auctions to shipping subscriptions across the country, his story is a testament to faith, hustle, humility, and heart. If you’ve ever wondered how to turn small beginnings into something beautiful (and caffeinated), this episode delivers.
