64. The Intensity Required to Make It to the Top with Sarah Jane Cobb

64. The Intensity Required to Make It to the Top with Sarah Jane Cobb

Sarah Jane Cobb's path to becoming a Chick-fil-A operator wasn't linear—it was relentless. Starting as a 15-year-old team member working for gas money and a social life, Sarah went on to study broadcast journalism at the University of Tennessee, where she built a successful news career alongside her husband David. After moving to Memphis to be closer to David's family during his father's ALS diagnosis, Sarah made the unexpected decision to leave journalism at 26 and return to Chick-fil-A. She spent a year and a half working for an operator, then two and a half years in the Leadership Development Program before planting herself in Springfield, Tennessee with her husband to build results and apply for restaurants. Today, she operates the Chick-fil-A in Glasgow, Kentucky—a dream she didn't even know she had at 15. Sarah's story is a masterclass in intensity, persistence, and doing whatever it takes to earn the next opportunity, even when "whatever it takes" meant working for free to gain experience. Her advice? Be intense. Be relentless. Make people wonder if you're crazy. Nobody gets anywhere great by being mediocre.
