In this powerful episode, host Janine Igliane and her co-host Ryan Hatcher sit down with Blake Elkin, entrepreneur, family man, and founder of State 48 Water.
Blake’s journey is anything but ordinary. From growing up in Northern California and Georgia to dropping out of high school, Blake faced obstacles that could have easily held him back. But through discipline, resilience, and a desire to build a better life, he turned his challenges into opportunities, serving in the Air National Guard, meeting his wife in Scottsdale, and eventually founding a successful water treatment business.
This episode goes far beyond business. Blake opens up about the lessons he has learned in life, the mindset shifts that helped him overcome setbacks, and the importance of integrity and family in everything he does. He also shares insights into running State 48 Water, covering everything from water softeners and whole-house filtration to residential RO systems and salt delivery, while balancing a thriving personal life.
If you are looking for a raw, honest, and inspiring story about perseverance, entrepreneurship, and building a meaningful life, this conversation is one you will not want to miss.
