This week, Joe is joined by Army Veteran and founder of Konala, Trace Miller. Diagnosed with Lennox-Gastaut epilepsy as a child, doctors predicted Trace wouldn't live past 13. Determined to defy the odds, his mother discovered a life-changing dietary treatment, and Trace has been seizure-free since the age of 7. In 2012, Trace enlisted in the Army and served as a Patriot Missile operator. During a deployment, he developed a passion for learning, business, and entrepreneurship. After separating from the military, Trace and his wife opened a food truck, which eventually grew into a bar and, ultimately, Konala. Driven by a passion for healthy eating, Konala offers nutritious meals with the convenience of fast food. Trace shares his insights with Joe on franchising his restaurant and provides valuable advice to aspiring entrepreneurs Episode Resources: Konala Franchise  About Our Guest   Trace Miller is the founder of Konala, America's first healthy drive-thru fast food franchise, and a U.S. Army veteran.
