oday's interview is about emotional resilience.

It is the story of a small business acquisition gone wrong.

But it is not about fetal position moments and tears.

Dustin Fusillo, who bought an ATM parts & service business, handled the decline and ultimate shuttering of the business he bought with stoicism.

Not to say that it was easy, or that he just breezed through.

He was disciplined about his mental health as things went sideways. He leaned on mentors and friends.

And Dustin had toughened due to events in his personal life in years prior.

So in today's interview you'll hear from someone whose acquisition went in the wrong direction, fatally, but he did not let it consume him.

Not only that, he actually landed on his feet.

Please enjoy this unusual story of first-time business buyer Dustin Fusillo.
