Cale Johnston enjoyed noteworthy success with his first fintech startup, ClickSWITCH, which he sold in 2021. But despite his positive experience, Johnston is prioritizing a smaller-scale legacy as he looks at his career in aggregate, he says in this episode of the Off the Record podcast.
“(Five years ago) my focus and my drive were about the company,” Johnston, who is now the founder and CEO of athletics platform Roy Inc., says, but it didn’t take long for people to forget about the business after he sold it. “My legacy needs to be focused on what goes on between the four walls of our house. My kids, my wife, my family.”
Johnston talks with hosts Kathy Robideau and Dave Faust about his career journey. Listen to learn more about:
- The value of a good coach (5:08).
