Jared Jennings chased a baseball dream until an undiagnosed thyroid condition forced him into business school and corporate life. What looked like stability soon felt suffocating, and he walked away to build something of his own.
The early grind was brutal—a hacked ad account, unsold inventory, and fear of rejection at every turn. But in failure he discovered his edge: mindset.
This episode unpacks fear as the hidden gatekeeper, why mediocrity feels safe, and how delayed gratification fuels true success. It’s a story of setbacks, revelations, and the price most refuse to pay—turning fear into the fuel for growth.
