128. From Coffee Table Pact to Global Impact: How Tom Livingston Built an 8-Figure Medical Device Company
Description
What if your next business idea wasn’t about making millions—but helping just one person? In this episode, Tom Livingston, CEO of Rampart IC, shares how a late-night phone call from a friend sparked the idea for a life-saving medical device—and how that simple act of service grew into a globally distributed, 8-figure company. From sketching concepts on a napkin to testing a prototype during a secret cabin weekend, Tom’s journey is a masterclass in purpose-driven leadership, calculated risk, and building something that truly matters.
Whether you’re burning the midnight oil on your own big idea or still in the dreaming phase, this conversation is for you. Tom opens up about building the company while working full time, the coffee table pact that changed everything, and the power of building a team rooted in belief, not just ambition. This is a story of faith, uncertainty, and the quiet courage it takes to bet on what doesn’t exist—yet.
