Episode 217 Codie Aljets

Reimagining life through metal art—Codie Aljets from Sage Country Customs takes us on an extraordinary journey from corporate burnout to creative fulfillment. Growing up in a small southern Illinois town of just 150 people, Cody's wanderlust was ignited by grandparents who traveled the world and this adventurous spirit carried him through a winding career path. What distinguishes Cody's approach isn't just his skill with metal—it's the profound meaning he embeds in each creation. Beyond personal commissions, his work has raised nearly $100,000 for cancer organizations, creating impact far beyond what financial donations alone could accomplish.
