About the Show:
Join us for a heartfelt “Best of” episode as we re-introduce the inaugural entry into the I Am Northwest Arkansas Podcast Hall of Fame. While we are excited to honor exceptional episodes, we are deeply saddened by the circumstances surrounding this first entry.
Two years ago, Mark Zweig introduced us to the remarkable entrepreneur Brant Barnes. In an unforgettable conversation at his Shelter Insurance office in Fayetteville, Brant shared captivating stories that spanned his childhood to his successful ventures as an adult. From owning pizza food franchises to managing rental properties and running a thriving insurance agency, Brant’s energy and accomplishments left a lasting impression.
Sadly, we lost Brant earlier this year in a plane crash near Drake Field. In memory of his remarkable journey and the impact he made, we honored him with Episode 204, titled “How NWA Serial Entrepreneur Brant Barnes Found Success in Authenticity,” as the first inductee into our Hall of Fame.
In this episode, you’ll hear Brant’s inspiring story and gain valuable insights if you’ve faced challenges in business or life. Join us in cherishing each day and consider sharing this episode with others who may benefit from its powerful message.
Godspeed, Brant. Your legacy lives on through our podcast and the lives you touched.
