Ralph Plumb never set out to live a double life—but for decades, he walked the line between international business and humanitarian ministry. A former telecom director, CEO, global strategist, and medical missions leader, Ralph has traveled to the most remote corners of the world with one purpose: to serve.
But behind his expansive resume is a story marked by grief, humility, and deep spiritual refinement. From the devastating loss of a child to betrayal in marriage, Ralph’s defining moments didn’t happen in boardrooms—they happened on hospital floors, mountain tops, and even the 108th floor of the Eiffel Tower.
In this honest and vulnerable conversation with host Teko Bailey, Ralph unpacks the weight of calling, how redemptive entrepreneurship became his legacy, and why spiritual surrender—not success—is the real secret to enduring leadership. He also shares wisdom for men navigating marriage, business, and identity under pressure.
This is not just a conversation about leadership. It’s a masterclass in resilience, rooted in faith, forged through fire, and lived with intentionality.
