 Real businesses. Real stories. All from right here in Columbus, Georgia. Hosted by the team at Momentum Wealth, Fountain City Founders dives into the true stories behind the businesses shaping our city. From makers and manufacturers to service pros and startups, we talk with the people who’ve built something from the ground up—and lived to tell the tale. These are unfiltered, honest conversations about what it really takes to run a business. The wins. The losses. The big decisions. And the stuff no one prepares you for—like partnerships, taxes, growth, and risk.

Meet the people behind it.© 2025 Momentum Wealth Management LLC Economics Leadership Management & Leadership
