How do you like your coffee?
Gerry Leary, my latest guest, is the owner of The Unseen Bean in Boulder, CO… and he takes “dark” roast to a whole new level.
Gerry was born blind and worked as a car mechanic for 40 years before opening his gourmet roastery in 2003. We chat about his life, barriers, and achievements as a craftsman, coffee connoisseur, and successful entrepreneur.
The running themes of our conversation are curiosity, confidence, Rope Team, problem-solving, and good old-fashioned grit. I hope you tune in and take strength from Gerry’s story.
On average, close to 70% of blind folks are unemployed, but that statistic doesn’t need to stick — we are capable of much more than society expects.
