Audrey Finney ran Hero Conf, a paid media conference, for years before trading digital marketing for Memphis barbecue, craft beer, and Social Cantina. Now she owns 10+ restaurants through Finney Hospitality Group, plus a car wash!
We talk about the stuff that shaped her career: navigating feedback without letting it destroy you (thanks, Tim McGraw), the Hero Conf attendees who tried to cancel her over a panel, and why being book smart means nothing if you can't read a room. Plus: the time she had to emergency-MC an event at 22 years old despite hating the spotlight, why restaurant people can do anything, and the Peter Principle trap that kills subject matter experts.

Fair warning: Contains strong opinions about yogurt parfaits, possums, and whether Taylor Swift's new album slaps.
