Entrepreneurship isn’t the highlight reel—it’s the late nights, the missed paychecks, the moments where you’re sleeping on the floor and flying across the country on your last dollar, betting everything on a vision that hasn’t paid off yet.
In this episode, I sit down with Kevin Jacobson Jr., who shares the real story behind the success—what it actually took to go from scraping by to working with some of the biggest brands in the world.
We talk about the emotional highs and gut-punch lows of building something from nothing, why integrity and being a genuinely good human still matter in business, and how thinking differently is often the only way forward. We also dive into where business is heading next—AI systems, leverage, and how founders can build smarter without losing their soul.
This is a raw, grounded conversation about grit, belief, and staying heart-centered in a world that constantly pressures you to cut corners.
If you’ve ever questioned whether the struggle is worth it—this episode is for you.
