Andrew Brümmer of Ardunan Village talks with Michi Lantz about AI, leadership, decision drift, and rebuilding a business with purpose. A sharp, human conversation on thinking differently, creating real impact, and not losing yourself while scaling.

At 53, facing the stark reality that his company might not survive, Andrew Brümmer executed a bold pivot within days. Without a college degree or established brand in Atlanta, he transformed his entire professional landscape. In 18 months, Andrew expanded his network to over 7,000 LinkedIn connections. More importantly: 623 people know him by name, over 100 have invested in his journey, and 16 people have fundamentally changed his life. He knew none of them 18 months prior.  South African by birth, relocated to Atlanta in 2003. Husband of 34 years, father of two fantastic independent children, woodworker, sea-life breeder, ballroom dancer, off-road rescuer, mountain climber (Kilimanjaro), and the creator of a 35,000-light Christmas display that brings strangers together to dance in the street.
