What happens when a kid who once felt invincible, who made more than his fair share of bad decisions, finds himself leading one of the largest auto groups in the country?

That’s the story of Joshua Potts, CEO and Director of Dealership Operations at Mac Haik Auto Group. And let me tell you, it’s not the kind of story you’d expect.

In this conversation, Josh opens up about:

  • Growing up with almost nothing and stumbling into the car business.
  • The turning points that shaped him into a leader people want to follow—not have to follow.
  • How small, intentional decisions (like cleaning up his language) transformed not only his own life but the lives of those around him.
  • Why leaders aren’t chosen… they rise.

And that’s just scratching the surface. This isn’t just a business episode, it’s a raw, unfiltered look at resilience, humility, and the kind of leadership that outlives titles.

By the end, you’ll be asking yourself: What would my career, my team, or even my family look like if I led with this kind of foresight and courage?
