      <title>How This Female Veteran Built a Multi-Generational Legacy | Trisha Stetzel | Ep. 212</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, host Young Han sits down with Trisha Stetzel — U.S. Navy veteran, international bestselling author, business strategist, and executive coach at ResultsXtreme Business Solutions (powered by Focal Point of South Texas) — for a candid conversation about military service, transition to civilian life, leadership for women veterans, and building multi-generational family legacy.

Trisha shares how service shaped her leadership, the practical habits that sustain resilience, and what it looks like to design a life aligned with values, family, and community. We talk coaching female veterans, cultural experiences from postings in Japan and Hawaii, navigating parenthood in military life, and why small habits and time in nature compound into meaningful growth.

      <title>The Imperfect CEO: Leading with Authenticity and Humility | Jim Brown | Episode 211</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, host Young Han sits down with Jim Brown, founder of OrgHealth, bestselling author, and leader of the Imperfect Leadership Movement, for a powerful conversation on leadership, parenting, and building organizations where people and performance thrive.
 
With more than 30 years of experience advising CEOs, executive teams, and boards, Jim has seen firsthand what works and what doesn’t when it comes to leadership. His approach challenges the traditional idea of the “perfect leader” and instead encourages leaders to embrace imperfection, lead with humility, and take ownership with courage.
 
In this conversation, Jim shares how parenting has deeply influenced his leadership style, why psychological safety is essential for both families and organizations, and how authenticity builds stronger relationships at every level. He and Young explore the connection between leading at home and leading at work, and why being open about emotions and imperfections can actually strengthen trust.
 
Jim also dives into his upcoming book, The Imperfect CEO, and his broader mission to help leaders move away from perfectionism and toward more honest, human leadership.

      <title>30 Years in Startups Taught Him This About Parenting and Success | Steve Bennet | Ep 210</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, host Young Han sits down with Steve Bennet, founder and managing director of Bodega Partners, longtime startup CFO, investor, professor, and father and grandfather, for a powerful conversation on entrepreneurship, mentorship, and life after decades in Silicon Valley.

With over 30 years of experience and involvement in more than 150 technology startups, Steve has seen the full spectrum of success and failure. From companies acquired by IBM, Comcast, and Citrix to ventures that didn’t make it, he brings a rare perspective on what actually drives long-term success in business and in life.

But this conversation goes beyond startups.

Steve shares why teaching and mentoring students has become one of the most fulfilling parts of his career, how his perspective on success has evolved over time, and what it means to balance family life while navigating high-pressure roles in venture capital and entrepreneurship.

He and Young dive into the realities of startup challenges, the incentives behind venture capital, and the difficult decisions founders face as they grow their companies. They also explore parenting through a long-term lens, why letting kids make mistakes matters, and how experience shapes the way we guide the next generation.

This episode is about perspective. What changes after 30 years of building, investing, and teaching. And what actually matters at the end of it.

      <title>He Left Wall Street to Build a 55+ Location Wellness Brand | Andrew Pudalov | 209</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, host Young Han sits down with Andrew Pudalov, founder of Rush Bowls, a fast-growing, health-focused franchise built around fresh, nutritious bowls and smoothies.

Andrew’s journey didn’t start in food. He spent 15 years climbing the ranks in New York City’s competitive finance world before making a bold decision to pursue a more purpose-driven path. In 2004, he opened Boulder, Colorado’s first all-natural bowl and smoothie bar, combining his passion for health, performance, and great-tasting food.

More than two decades later, that single idea has grown into Rush Bowls, a nationwide brand with over 55 locations, serving communities with wholesome, crave-worthy meals and an active lifestyle mission.

In this conversation, Andrew shares what it really takes to walk away from a stable career and build something from the ground up. He and Young dive into the realities of franchising, scaling a brand while staying true to its core values, and why the wellness industry continues to grow.

Beyond business, Andrew reflects on fatherhood and how becoming a parent has shifted his perspective on time, priorities, and success. They discuss the challenge of balancing family life with entrepreneurship, the importance of being present, and how building a business and raising a family often require the same mindset: patience, discipline, and long-term thinking.

      <itunes:summary>In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, host Young Han sits down with Andrew Pudalov, founder of Rush Bowls, a fast-growing, health-focused franchise built around fresh, nutritious bowls and smoothies.

Andrew’s journey didn’t start in food. He spent 15 years climbing the ranks in New York City’s competitive finance world before making a bold decision to pursue a more purpose-driven path. In 2004, he opened Boulder, Colorado’s first all-natural bowl and smoothie bar, combining his passion for health, performance, and great-tasting food.

More than two decades later, that single idea has grown into Rush Bowls, a nationwide brand with over 55 locations, serving communities with wholesome, crave-worthy meals and an active lifestyle mission.

In this conversation, Andrew shares what it really takes to walk away from a stable career and build something from the ground up. He and Young dive into the realities of franchising, scaling a brand while staying true to its core values, and why the wellness industry continues to grow.

Beyond business, Andrew reflects on fatherhood and how becoming a parent has shifted his perspective on time, priorities, and success. They discuss the challenge of balancing family life with entrepreneurship, the importance of being present, and how building a business and raising a family often require the same mindset: patience, discipline, and long-term thinking.

      <title>Balancing Business and Fatherhood | Miguel Alexander Centeno | Episode 206</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, host Young Han sits down with Miguel Alexander Centeno, founder and managing partner of Tax Hack (now Centurion Firm), veteran tax strategist, and father of three, for a powerful conversation about entrepreneurship, parenting, and building a meaningful life.

Miguel shares his journey from Big 4 tax manager at PwC to leading one of the fastest-growing private firms in America, recently named to the INC.5000 list. Along the way, he has testified before the U.S. House of Representatives, been quoted by The Wall Street Journal, MSNBC, and Fox Business, and built a respected brand in the tax advisory space. But behind the credentials is a father navigating the complexities of raising children at different stages while running a high-performance business.

Miguel opens up about becoming a young dad, how his immigrant background shaped his work ethic and values, and the lessons he wants to pass on to his kids. He and Young discuss balancing independence and support in parenting, teaching resilience, slowing down to cherish time with family, and why parents must prioritize their own well-being to model success properly.

This episode dives into branding, specialization, legacy, and what it really means to define success beyond survival.

      <itunes:summary>In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, host Young Han sits down with Miguel Alexander Centeno, founder and managing partner of Tax Hack (now Centurion Firm), veteran tax strategist, and father of three, for a powerful conversation about entrepreneurship, parenting, and building a meaningful life.

Miguel shares his journey from Big 4 tax manager at PwC to leading one of the fastest-growing private firms in America, recently named to the INC.5000 list. Along the way, he has testified before the U.S. House of Representatives, been quoted by The Wall Street Journal, MSNBC, and Fox Business, and built a respected brand in the tax advisory space. But behind the credentials is a father navigating the complexities of raising children at different stages while running a high-performance business.

Miguel opens up about becoming a young dad, how his immigrant background shaped his work ethic and values, and the lessons he wants to pass on to his kids. He and Young discuss balancing independence and support in parenting, teaching resilience, slowing down to cherish time with family, and why parents must prioritize their own well-being to model success properly.

This episode dives into branding, specialization, legacy, and what it really means to define success beyond survival.

      <title>Navigating Franchising, Failure, and Fatherhood | Red Boswell | Ep. 202</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, host Young Han sits down with Red Boswell, President of the International Franchise Professionals Group (IFPG), longtime franchise executive, and father of three, for a wide-ranging conversation on entrepreneurship, parenting, and building a life rooted in growth and strong relationships.

Red brings more than 30 years of executive leadership across franchising, marketing, and entrepreneurship. As President of IFPG, he has helped grow the organization into the #1 franchise broker network, recognized by Entrepreneur Magazine for seven consecutive years. Prior to IFPG, Red founded and scaled a 148-unit pet-service franchise system, launched a franchise and marketing consulting firm, and held senior growth and CEO roles within global franchise organizations.

At the heart of this episode is Red’s perspective on fatherhood and family. He shares what it’s been like raising three entrepreneurial-minded children, navigating the transition into an empty-nest season, and why communication and intentionality are essential as kids grow more independent. Red also opens up about learning through failure, the importance of knowing yourself as a leader, and how maintaining a strong partnership with his wife has anchored both his personal and professional life.

They explore franchising as a vehicle for opportunity, the often-underestimated role of franchise consultants, and why balancing ambition with family presence is key to long-term fulfillment. Red also touches on the hobbies and passions that keep him energized, from off-road electric skateboarding to water sports.

      <title>Navigating Parenthood and Business | Dave Hansen | Episode 202</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, host Young Han sits down with Dave Hansen, CEO of ClientTether, longtime sales leader, and father of four, for an honest conversation about parenting, leadership, and building meaningful relationships in both business and family life.

Dave shares his unconventional path from tech into franchising, what he’s learned from leading sales teams for over 20 years, and how coaching franchise systems has shaped his view on people, growth, and accountability. But at the heart of this conversation is fatherhood.

Dave opens up about becoming a young parent, navigating one of his son’s leukemia diagnoses, and how that experience permanently shifted his perspective on presence, structure, and what truly matters. He and Young explore why validating effort matters more than outcomes, how structure and discipline create freedom for kids, and what it looks like to prepare children not just for careers, but for life.

They also dive into Dave’s aspirations as his kids move toward adulthood, his vision for traveling and working remotely as an empty nester, and why creativity, hobbies, and hands-on experiences (yes, including blacksmithing) still matter.

Dave shares his unconventional path from tech into franchising, what he’s learned from leading sales teams for over 20 years, and how coaching franchise systems has shaped his view on people, growth, and accountability. But at the heart of this conversation is fatherhood.

Dave opens up about becoming a young parent, navigating one of his son’s leukemia diagnoses, and how that experience permanently shifted his perspective on presence, structure, and what truly matters. He and Young explore why validating effort matters more than outcomes, how structure and discipline create freedom for kids, and what it looks like to prepare children not just for careers, but for life.

They also dive into Dave’s aspirations as his kids move toward adulthood, his vision for traveling and working remotely as an empty nester, and why creativity, hobbies, and hands-on experiences (yes, including blacksmithing) still matter.

      <title>Building a Healthy Business Without Sacrificing Family | Trace Miller | Episode 200</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, Young Han sits down with Trace Miller, Founder and CEO of Konala, a fast-growing healthy fast food concept built around one simple idea: make nutritious food delicious, convenient, and accessible.
 
Trace’s story starts long before Konala. As a child, nutrition played a critical role in helping him overcome serious health challenges, shaping how he thinks about food, discipline, and long-term well-being. That perspective eventually led him from running a food truck to building Konala, a drive-thru protein bowl concept designed for people who want to eat better without slowing down their lives.
 
Throughout the conversation, Trace shares how family support has been foundational to his journey, why patience is one of the most underrated skills in both parenting and business, and how he stays present with his kids while scaling a brand. He also opens up about personal growth, continuous learning, and what it takes to build a business that actually solves a real problem.
 
This episode is a reminder that success does not have to come at the expense of health or family. With the right values and intention, you can build something meaningful while still showing up for the people who matter most.

      <title>Building a Manufacturing Business While Raising Two Daughters | 199 | Stephen Mellott</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, Young Han sits down with Stephen Mellott, CEO of EPTI and President of HSI, for a grounded conversation about leadership, family, and what it really takes to build a meaningful legacy.

Stephen operates a manufacturing business serving refineries and power generation systems, but his story starts far from boardrooms. He was raised in the middle of nowhere on a working ranch, the only boy among three sisters, with a father who was often away for work. That upbringing shaped how he parents today: understanding, but firm, and deeply intentional about presence.

As a dad to two daughters, Lilly (14) and Madeline (almost 12), Stephen talks openly about how parenting is not one size fits all. His girls are completely different humans, and that reality has forced him to adapt, listen more, and lead differently at home just as he does at work.

Throughout the episode, Stephen emphasizes a few non-negotiables:
Integrity cannot be compromised, whether you are leading a company or raising kids.
Respect matters in every role, father, husband, leader.
And partnership is everything.

Stephen is clear that while single parents can absolutely succeed, his ability to operate at a high level in business is directly tied to the support of his wife. She is his partner in all of it, carrying the load when he cannot and helping keep the family grounded. His advice is simple and honest: work with your partner, do not freak out, and trust that it will be okay. After all, our parents did not have it all figured out either.

This conversation is not about perfection. It is about persistence, humility, and showing up with integrity even when you are learning in real time.

      <title>Why Being a Dad and an Entrepreneur Feels So Lonely | 198 | Rebel Dads</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, Young Han sits down with Derek Notman and Adam Holt, co-founders of REBL Dads, for an honest conversation about the collision of fatherhood and entrepreneurship.

Derek shares his journey growing up in a broken household, becoming a young father himself, and navigating entrepreneurship without the support system he needed most. He opens up about the moment he realized that being a dad is hard, being an entrepreneur is hard, and trying to do both without community can feel overwhelming and isolating.

Together, Derek and Adam talk about why existing communities often focus on either business or parenting, but rarely both. When they couldn’t find a space that supported the full reality of being a dad and a builder, they decided to create it themselves. The conversation explores the importance of shared experience, honest support, and building something meaningful not just for success, but for sustainability.

This episode is for founders, operators, and dads who have ever thought, “There’s gotta be a better way.”

      <title>Everything Changed in 2025. Here’s What I’m Doing Differently in 2026| Ep. 197 | Young Han</title>
      <description><![CDATA[We’re back from the break with a brand new episode of The Girl Dad Show.

In this solo reflection, Young Han looks back on the lessons, challenges, and growth that shaped 2025, both personally and professionally. From the evolution of the podcast to navigating leadership bottlenecks in his businesses, Young shares what worked, what didn’t, and what ultimately forced him to grow.

He opens up about how his views on financial freedom have changed, especially as they relate to parenting, time, and long-term security for his family. The conversation dives into the cost of constant context switching, why leadership models must evolve as companies scale, and why health and energy are now non-negotiable priorities.
Looking ahead to 2026, Young outlines a renewed focus on franchising, personal development, and building systems that create clarity at work and presence at home. This episode marks a reset and a fresh start as the show returns with new conversations and deeper insights.

      <title>Prioritizing Parenthood | Ep. 194 | Scott Doty</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, Young Han sits down with Scott Doty, founder and CEO of BrainStorm Tutoring & Arts and a devoted father of two, for a thoughtful conversation on parenting, purpose, and building a life aligned with your values.

Scott Doty grew up in Ramsey, New Jersey, where he balanced sports, music, and academics before attending Tufts University and earning his Master’s degree from the University of Melbourne in Australia. Along the way, he became a National Merit Finalist, a Rotary International Ambassadorial Scholar, and a member of Mensa.

In 2006, Scott and his wife Ashley founded BrainStorm Tutoring & Arts, which has grown into Northern New Jersey’s premier academic mentoring network. Today, BrainStorm employs over 60 people, has won Best in Northern New Jersey seven years in a row, and was named One of the Most Innovative Companies in America by Entrepreneur Magazine.

Scott has taught on five continents and is a sought-after performance coach specializing in college admissions, test prep, purpose-led life design, and productivity. He also advises startups on brand strategy, company culture, and client relationships.

Scott shares his journey as an entrepreneur who intentionally built flexibility into his work so he could remain present at home. Together, he and Young explore what it means to raise grounded, curious kids in a fast-moving, hyper-digital world. Scott opens up about his parenting philosophy, including his no-cell-phone rule, how he thinks about protecting children’s mental health, and the balance between exposing kids to the real world while still creating a safe foundation.

This episode dives into education, intentional parenting, and the responsibility of helping children become confident, capable humans. It’s a conversation about slowing down, leading with values, and creating impact both inside the home and beyond it.

Along the way, he became a National Merit Finalist, a Rotary International Ambassadorial Scholar, and a member of Mensa.

In 2006, Scott and his wife Ashley founded BrainStorm Tutoring &amp; Arts, which has grown into Northern New Jersey’s premier academic mentoring network. Today, BrainStorm employs over 60 people, has won Best in Northern New Jersey seven years in a row, and was named One of the Most Innovative Companies in America by Entrepreneur Magazine.

Scott has taught on five continents and is a sought-after performance coach specializing in college admissions, test prep, purpose-led life design, and productivity. He also advises startups on brand strategy, company culture, and client relationships.

Scott shares his journey as an entrepreneur who intentionally built flexibility into his work so he could remain present at home. Together, he and Young explore what it means to raise grounded, curious kids in a fast-moving, hyper-digital world. Scott opens up about his parenting philosophy, including his no-cell-phone rule, how he thinks about protecting children’s mental health, and the balance between exposing kids to the real world while still creating a safe foundation.

This episode dives into education, intentional parenting, and the responsibility of helping children become confident, capable humans. It’s a conversation about slowing down, leading with values, and creating impact both inside the home and beyond it.

      <title>Evolving as a Parent | Ep. 189| Young Han</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this solo episode of The Girl Dad Show, host Young Han reflects on how parenting changes as children grow—and how, as parents, we must grow with them.
 
Young explores what it means to stay adaptable as a father, drawing lessons from situational leadership and the need to evolve our parenting styles as our kids move from dependence to independence. He opens up about missing the early, cute stages of childhood while finding new joy in raising independent, curious, and outspoken kids.
 
This honest reflection is for every parent navigating the transition from guiding little ones to mentoring young adults. Young reminds us that parenting isn’t just about directing—it’s about listening, supporting, and evolving through every stage of the journey.

      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, host Young Han sits down with Kevin Noble, a mechanical engineer turned operator and finance partner, to explore how intentional parenting and entrepreneurship intersect. After a decade helping Atlassian scale—including leading a 135-person enablement organization—Kevin founded Group 18 in 2025, where he now serves as a fractional COO, helping companies deliver predictable execution, make faster decisions, and increase margins.

Kevin shares his personal journey from corporate life to entrepreneurship, how meditation has shaped his parenting, and why he believes love is an act—not just a feeling. He opens up about his approach to raising three kids in Austin with his wife and two rescued pit bulls, the lessons learned from his upbringing, and his philosophy of fostering curiosity, presence, and self-awareness in both business and parenting.

      <title>Legacy Over Money | Ep. 179 | Ryan Parsons</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, Young Han interviews Ryan Parsons, CEO of Evive Brands and co-founder of The Brothers That Just Do Gutters. Ryan opens up about his entrepreneurial journey—from starting a small gutter business with his brother to leading a multi-brand franchise platform—while raising six kids with his wife.

Ryan shares the lessons he’s learned from building businesses, the power of franchising to scale impact, and why leadership and values are at the center of everything he does. Beyond business, he reflects on his Christian upbringing, the importance of supportive partnerships, and why he believes in quantity time (not just “quality time”) with his children.

Together, they explore:
How franchising helped scale a family business into a platform brand
The balance between entrepreneurship and parenting six kids
The surprising ways parenting reveals selfishness—and how it builds growth
Why screens aren’t a replacement for creativity and connection
The value of community, faith, and living below your means
His vision for Evive Brands and the legacy he wants to leave behind

      <itunes:subtitle>In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, Young Han sits down with Jim Cook, a Silicon Valley veteran with over 30 years of experience scaling startups, including guiding Mozilla from Series A to IPO. Jim is the founder of BenchBoard and the creator of Cook’s PlayBooks newsletter, where he coaches leaders and equips them with frameworks to bridge the gap between vision and execution.

Jim shares how he’s balanced high-stakes executive roles with being present for his family, why sales skills are essential in every career, and how travel helps build empathy in children. He discusses the importance of modeling good behavior, setting boundaries, and staying authentic in both leadership and content creation. Jim also critiques the unhealthy 996 work culture and explains why teaching financial literacy to kids is one of the best investments parents can make.

      <title>From CMO to Full-Time Dad (and Back Again)  Ep #174 | Umang Shah</title>
      <description><![CDATA[This week on The Girl Dad Show, Young Han sits down with Umang Shah — marketing executive, fractional CMO, and founder of Inovari — for a thoughtful conversation about what happens when your entire worldview shifts after becoming a parent.

Umang Shah is a seasoned marketing executive with 20+ years of experience leading global marketing innovation across industries like tech, retail, CPG, life sciences, and financial services. He’s held leadership roles at companies like Microsoft, Walmart, Campbell’s, Medidata, and Northwestern Mutual. Named one of Adweek’s 50 Vital Leaders in Tech, Media, and Marketing, Umang now runs his own consultancy, Inovari, where he helps startups and growth-stage companies stay perpetually relevant.

Together, they unpack how fatherhood has impacted Umang’s career decisions, health, and lifestyle, and why the pandemic was a major turning point for realigning priorities. They talk about the emotional and mental adjustments required to show up fully — both at home and at work — and why being present is sometimes the hardest but most valuable thing you can do.

Whether you’re a new parent, a seasoned one, or someone thinking about how to better balance your ambition with the rest of your life, this episode offers candid reflections and real-world insight.

Takeaways
Parenthood forces a reset on what really matters
Success doesn’t mean much without well-being
Kids model what we do, not what we say
Flexibility in consulting can be freeing, but not without its pressures
Enjoying the ride is often more important than controlling it

      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, host Young Han sits down with Jason Mok, VP and GTM leader at Brex and a devoted single dad. Jason currently serves as GM of Brex’s Startups business and oversees Strategic Partnerships. Before Brex, he was an Operating Partner and GM at Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), where he led the firm’s first $400M Seed Fund, and spent 16 years at Silicon Valley Bank championing early- and growth-stage founders.

Jason’s story spans decades of leadership in banking, venture capital, and fintech—but at the heart of it is a father navigating the complexities of work, legacy, and raising good humans.

In this episode, Jason opens up about teaching his kids about money, setting boundaries between work and family, and how success as a parent isn’t about control—it’s about the relationship you build as they grow up.

      <title>Raising 2 kids with special needs🥰</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Young & Peter dive into topics such as raising 3 kids with 2 having special needs, troubles and tribulations and how to overcome them, and all the mindset that you need to build a happy and successful life.

ABOUT OUR GUEST:
Peter Espinosa is a CEO, Founder, Owner, Sales Leader, Board Member, and Advisor. He believes that companies can achieve special and unique results if they take care of their customers and treat their employees well. Motivating people to work hard and deliver exceptional results is not only possible, but likely, if they work for a company that values their contributions and a culture that respects them as an individual. Customers and prospects are increasingly seeking to do business with companies who possess what he calls the "big 3": a great product/ solution, special and uniquely fun and motivated people, who genuinely love their customers.

      <title>Your Career is Holding Your Kids Back. This Mompreneur Will Show You Why!</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Young Han & Victoria Ransom talk about a big picture perspective, education for children, prioritizing quality time with kids, the increase of entrepreneurial parents, and how your kids can influence your business and career choices. 

ABOUT VICTORIA:
Victoria has been an entrepreneur since her early twenties and has developed four companies, including Wildfire, which was acquired by Google in 2012 for $450M. Her current venture, Prisma, is pioneering a new approach to K-12 education that turns the current rigid, ‘one size fits few’ model of education on its head.

Victoria was named a Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum and recognized by KEA in their annual World Class New Zealander awards. She was named to Fortune Magazine’s 40 under 40 list and was recognized by President Obama in 2013 for her contributions to entrepreneurship. In addition, she was named one of Fortune Magazine’s Most Powerful Women Entrepreneurs in 2012 and one of the '25 Women to Watch in Tech' for 2011 & 2010. She is on the board of Trustees at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. In her spare time she is an avid snowboarder and surfer and a passionate adventure traveler who once spent six weeks living with a remote Amazonian tribe and five months living in a favela in Brazil!

Striving for financial freedom may require sacrifices in terms of time spent with family, but it can also provide more opportunities in the future.
Navigating the challenges and confusion of work-life integration requires self-reflection, trust in one&apos;s decisions, and a willingness to adapt.
As a business owner, Young Han sees work-life integration as an opportunity to set his own standards and create a more humane way of living.
Understanding the hierarchy of needs and priorities can help in making informed decisions about how to allocate time and resources.

      <title>Ep #11 | Jeremy Giroir | On Adventure and Life Lessons</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Jeremy Giroir on Adventure and Life Lessons. Brought to you by The Girl Dad Show with Young Han. An entrepreneur at heart, at the age of twelve, Jeremy (https://linkedin.com/in/jeremy-giroir) learned the power of compound interest and immediately began cutting grass for income so he could start saving for retirement. In college, instead of getting a part-time job, he purchased prepaid phone cards and ATMs wholesale and sold them to convenience stores. Upon graduating, he turned down a job offer from Price Waterhouse Cooper in order to build, then later sell, a vending machine business. In 2013, he moved to Austin and purchased a stone fabrication company. After growing the company to $3.2M in annual sales and 22 employees, he sold it and is now pursuing the real-life version of his favorite childhood board game, Monopoly. Although his career has been eclectic and rewarding, his most fulfilling job to date is being a dad to his 16-month-old daughter, Ellery. Young & Jeremy talk about topics from a sneak-peek into Jeremy's exciting resort building adventure, his yearlong RV journey with a toddler, the supportive upbringing he wishes to instill in his daughter, life lessons learned from his father, why he sold his last business, and what success is in business and parenting. Please enjoy & subscribe! About Young Han: I’m all about operations. I have started companies, scaled hyper-growth startups, and understand a variety of industries. As a fractional COO, I guide companies through myriad challenges, from exponential growth to adapting to market shifts. I've experienced an incredible range of business journeys from small to big, early to late stage, and across many different industries.</p>
