This episode I’m speaking to the seriously ambitious and ever-curious entrepreneur, Jake Lau. In high school, Jake wanted to be a fighter pilot, a race car driver, or an investment banker on Wall Street... really, anything that would bring him white-knuckle adventure.
But a twist of fate meant he ended up becoming an accountant. Within days, he knew that wasn’t the right path for him and knew he needed a course-correction. After roaming the world, he went on to launch a total of *six* different companies, everything from a food truck to a pet-food business.
He tells me exactly how he walked away from a comfortable, well-paid job into the volatile world of entrepreneurship, and shares his tips for getting outside your comfort zone.
