What do you do when everyone around you tells you your idea is ridiculous?
In this episode, Michael LeJeune shares a hilarious but powerful story from a recent small business conference that sparked the unexpected creation of “Cups and Chaos,” a fictional drive-through coffee shop featuring baby raccoons. What started as a joke quickly turned into a lesson about vision, courage, and why most people abandon their dreams far too early.
Michael breaks down why big ideas almost always sound crazy at first, why employees and institutions resist risk, and how momentum and belief can transform ridicule into opportunity. If you’ve ever let doubt, fear, or other people’s opinions stop you from pursuing something meaningful, this episode is a reminder that every dream deserves a fair fight.
