Pressed for Presence
#32: Just Start | Jared Ponce Casados
Jared Ponce Casados is the operator and strategic partner at Amplifi, a financial education brand.
In today’s conversation, we talked about what it’s like to be a young entrepreneur. Building businesses and going an unconventional route can be a rewarding journey, but it can also be a lonely and isolating one. Jared shares his story of trying and failing at a handful of different pursuits while he was on his way to his current career at Amplifi, and gives relatable perspective for other young professionals chasing similar paths.
Some of the highlights from today’s episode:
- How do you find your “calling?”
- Building a circle of mentors
- Defeating imposter syndrome
- It’s normal people all the way to the top
- Why alignment is better fuel than passion
- Is life all about the grind?
Jared is one of the dudes who inspires me to aim big in life and stay grounded along the way. This conversation would have been awesome for my 20 year old self to listen to, and I hope anyone chasing an unconventional dream finds some valuable takeaways from it.
Thanks for listening.
