My story isn't typical - it's not about steady corporate progression or entrepreneurship from the start.At 23, as a single dad, my journey took an unexpected turn.In big corporations, where I stayed longer than planned, I experienced a different kind of growth.Each night, after my son slept, my dual life as a father and ambitious professional unfolded.But here's something you might not know: in these big companies, I didn't just get by; I excelled. Leading teams from two to 550, I was more than just another face.I was a leader, learning about product development and large-scale expansion.Yet, I constantly wondered, 'Am I too late to start my own business?'This internal struggle, balancing comfort and ambition, kept me restless.Outwardly successful in corporate, inwardly, I yearned for something of my own.Skeptics called my desire to leave a stable career crazy, intensifying my internal conflict.As my son became more independent, my perspective shifted.A change was brewing, a readiness for something new.That's when I left my corporate safety net, embracing the unknown.The excitement of change was tangible, but what was to come?My journey, initially thought to be solo, became a collaborative effort.My first customer, my peers - they were more than connections; they were catalysts for transformation.This transformation led to founding two startups in seven years.Leaving corporate life for entrepreneurship was more than a business move; it was self-discovery, realizing my potential.My achievements are clear:→ Generated 9-figure revenue growth for clients and employers.→ Progressed through 10 roles in two companies before venturing out.→ Grew bootstrapped businesses to 7 and 8-figure heights.→ Developed numerous leaders.→ Launched several products.→ Built two startups in seven years.I share my story to inspire those on similar paths, not for self-praise.If you're wondering if it's too late or too risky, let my experience guide you.I'm here to connect, share, and inspire.Let's discover what lies ahead, together.Join my free newsletter at https://jaymount.me/newsletter
