Should every experience in life be a building block for your next step?

Edward Howard’s journey as an entrepreneur shows that it can be. Join us on Diehard Entrepreneur Stories as we learn how Edward’s past shaped his approach to building Official Wings 🍗 and navigating the unpredictable path of business.

Starting in Memphis, Edward faced hurdles that could have crushed his spirit, but instead, he used each one to strengthen his foundation. He shares the raw realities of running a business — from food trucks 🚚 to juggling multiple locations 📍🗺️ — and the tough decisions that fueled long-term growth, like knowing when to close a location. Through it all, his vision has been his anchor, and he talks about the power of staying true to it, even when the waves get rough. Delegation, understanding your market, and sticking to your values are at the heart of his approach.

Success for Edward is about building something meaningful. At the core of Edward’s story is his desire to give back to his community 🤝. His mission goes beyond profits. He’s focused on leaving a lasting impact with plans for a rehab center to help those struggling with addiction. 💪 We talk about handling setbacks, managing emotions, and pushing through when things get tough. Growth doesn’t come from avoiding the struggle; it’s found in facing it head-on. 🎧 Tune in, you won’t want to miss this.

I’m on a MISSION to help entrepreneurs create IMPACT.
