In this episode of "Holy Smokes," host Steve Reiter interviews Jim Lavelle, delving into his diverse career journey from the mortgage industry through financial services to tech and finally establishing a pizzeria in Colorado Springs recognized among the top Neapolitan spots in the U.S. Jim opens up about overcoming significant financial hurdles during the 2008 crisis, the influential books that guided him, and his experiences with cigar smoking and pairing, which have enriched his personal and social life. They also discuss their shared appreciation for tobacco, spiritual growth, and meaningful relationships cultivated through the Holy Smokes group, touching on the importance of community support, particularly amid Lavelle's own family's challenges and his ongoing spiritual reawakening. The episode weaves through varied topics—from Jim's favorite cigars and high-end rums to his passion for music and connections with sports teams—culminating in a reflective and compelling narrative about resilience, faith, friendship, and the pursuit of contentment.
