Jason Stewart is Founder of Epic Fighting (SoCal based MMA promotion), Stewart Estates (real estate group), and Epic Exoctics (exotic car rentals). In this conversation, we discuss how Jason stays calm under pressure, his approach to stress management, and how his unconventional upbringing shaped his mindset. We dive into his journey buying a house at 21, launching a successful MMA promotion in Southern California, and building a brand that spans real estate and exotic cars. Jason also breaks down his marketing philosophy, the importance of mentorship, and the hard truths about running multiple businesses versus going all-in on one. Whether you're an entrepreneur, athlete, or someone chasing high performance—this one’s for you.
