Business as a Safety Net

Season 22 | Episode 7
27m | Nov 8, 2026

Dads work really hard to build businesses and build careers—not just to pay the bills, but to protect and provide for the people we love most. But life can throw a curveball when you least expect it, and in those moments, we’re forced to answer a serious question: Does the work we do control our lives, or does it give us the freedom to show up for our families when it matters most?

Chance Sweat is a husband, father, business owner, and business broker with a passion for helping entrepreneurs build companies that can thrive without requiring them to be tied to a desk 80 hours a week.

Back in 2023, Chance and his family faced the ultimate test when his wife, Taylor, was diagnosed with breast cancer at just 29 years old. Because Chance had intentionally built a business designed to run without his daily presence, he was able to completely step away for three months to walk alongside her, focus on her healing, and be fully present for his family.

Today, Taylor is cancer-free, and Chance is sharing his journey—not just as a story of survival and faith, but as a roadmap for how dads can treat their work as everyday ministry and build true freedom into their lives.
