Building Beyond the 9–5 – Jason Anderson on Entrepreneurship, Risk & Legacy
What happens when a numbers guy trades in spreadsheets for tents, tools, and teaching moments? Jason Anderson's journey from corporate accounting to building two businesses — Eagle Inspections MN and a thriving party/event rental service — is a powerful testament to reinvention, grit, and long-term vision.
This episode matters because Jason’s story is the story of so many quiet builders: people who step away from "safe" careers to create something lasting, not just for themselves — but for their families and future.
🎧 In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How Jason turned his daughter’s graduation party into a growing rental business
- Why he walked away from corporate life in search of meaning and legacy
- The difference between being self-employed vs. being a true entrepreneur
- How mentorship, failure, and mindset shifts have guided his success
- The importance of staying curious and always learning
- Why building something from scratch is worth every risk
📍 Recorded at PodcastCrew Studio, Robbinsdale, MN
