The Build with Jeff Kallil
The Build is a real-time record of what it takes to build something that holds — in business, family, and life.
I'm Jeff Kallil — building Pure Yums, operating Convivial Brands, raising kids, and navigating the pressure that comes with doing all three at once.
This isn’t content. It’s the work behind the work. The hard calls. The internal wrestles. The quiet decisions that shape it all.
If you're building something meaningful — and want clarity without the noise — this is for you.

The Build - Ep 18: What I’m Leaving Behind in 2025 (Hard Truths + Fresh Starts)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
As the year closes, I’m not just making plans for 2026 — I’m choosing what not to carry with me.
In this episode, I share the real, sometimes uncomfortable truths I’ve had to face this year — as a founder, a father, and a human trying to build something meaningful without burning out.
This is less of a highlight reel, more of a mirror. The lessons that cost me time, energy, and peace — and what I’m letting go of so I can lead better and live lighter.
Inside:
- What I finally had to release in business this year
- Leadership habits I won’t bring into 2026
- How fatherhood re-centered my ambition
- The invisible weight of doing too much, too long
- What it takes to move forward with clarity and conviction
If you're tired of carrying what no longer fits — this one's for you.
Let's make 2026 our best year ever, together.
- Jeff
