Good Business with Clay Vaughan
Good Business with Clay Vaughan is a podcast about building companies that actually matter. Not just ones that grow, but ones that last. Ones that honor God, care for people, and create real value in the world.
Every week, Clay sits down with entrepreneurs, executives, and leaders who are walking that road in their own way. The conversations aren’t fluffy or surface-level. They get into the hard stuff—how to lead through chaos, how to build culture when it’s easier to cut corners, and how to keep purpose front and center when profit is shouting in your ear.
It’s a show about the kind of business most people want to run but few actually figure out. You’ll hear wins and mistakes, stories and strategies, but more importantly—you’ll hear what it looks like to run a business that’s both good at what it does and good for the people it touches.
If you want to grow, lead well, and make an impact that outlives you, this is your place.

The Benefit of Boundaries in Business with Emilee Vaughan
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
The divorce rate for entrepreneurs is 48%. That means that nearly half of all marriages fail when put under the pressure of starting a company.
Building a business from scratch, and bootstrapping it for that matter, is one of the most difficult challenges that you will ever face in business because the risk is real and it's all on the line. Your career, your reputation, your relationships... Everything is at risk because of the high-pressure, high-risk, and high-reward all swirling around at the same time.
As a serial entrepreneur with a steadily growing portfolio of businesses that I oversee and invest in, if I could say there was one crucial element to my success, it's Emilee. I would say, recognizing God's grace on it all, there would be no chance of success without Emilee being who she is and supporting me the way she has.
Today I asked Emilee to join in and share what we've learned, the mistakes we've made, and the protections we put in place at the beginning so that no matter what happened, we remained strong and our marriage survived. I have no doubt that she will be an encouragement and her wisdom will be impactful as you seek to lead your business well.
Main things we'll be talking about:
- The right partner will skyrocket your business
- Setting boundaries in business to protect your marriage
- Bad goals will kill your relationships
