From Foster Care to Million Dollar Business | Lucas Payne’s Wild Story | TDES S2 EP 4
Season 2
Episode 4
Published 10 months, 1 week ago
Description
What starts as a deep dive into international trade and entrepreneurship turns into one of the most powerful conversations I’ve had on this podcast.
Lucas Payne opens up about his journey—from being emancipated at 15 and bouncing through the foster care system, to becoming the founder of Force Global Supply, a company disrupting the construction supply chain by cutting out middlemen and creating direct pipelines between developers and global manufacturers.
We talk about adoption, fatherhood, trauma, race, family, and what it really means to choose love and build legacy. If you’ve ever felt like your past disqualified you, this episode will shift your mindset.
We also cover how Lucas is changing lives in West Africa through sustainable well drilling and clean water projects.
Whether you’re an entrepreneur, a leader, or just someone searching for purpose—this episode is for you!
