"I’m not in charge… & it’s a really nice feeling.” – David Amigo
Most entrepreneurs chase control.
David finds peace in letting go.
Because when you’ve been a factory scab at 11, a product manager slinging cookies in your 20s, & a minority owner pushed out of your own family’s business — you learn fast: control is an illusion.
What isn’t?
Character. Integrity. Showing up. Doing the next right thing, even when the plan falls apart.
That’s where purpose is forged — not in the wins, but in the wreckage.
When you dust off, serve others, & keep building anyway.
That mindset built his landscaping business, G & G Landscaping, one of the most respected in the Carolinas, where ego gets weeded out & excellence takes root.
There, he’s not CEO. He’s CEB: Chief Errand Boy. Clearing the path. Serving first. Doing what needs doing.
Because for David, leadership isn’t about being out front — it’s about being all in.
For the builders, the rebuilders, & the ones who never quite fit the mold, this episode’s your mirror.

David took Albert Einstein’s charge to heart: “Try not to become a man of success but rather try to become a man of value.”
That’s some great wisdom!
