You may know UVA Wine Bar for its incredible atmosphere—but behind it is a story of vision, courage, and deep intentionality. In this bonus episode of The Shift Podcast, Matt and Evan sit down with Liz Blakeley, co-owner of UVA Wine Bar in Colorado Springs, CO. Liz shares how a spontaneous trip to Napa turned into a bold career shift after 26 years in physical therapy. She unpacks her approach to leading people with empathy, creating a culture of trust, and building a business where team and community come first. If you’re serious about leadership, longevity, and building something that lasts—this conversation is a masterclass.
