Welcome to the Day One List, the podcast about who you call first and what it takes to earn that place. Hi, I'm Jenny McCallum, franchisee of Express Employment Professionals, Specialized Recruiting Group, and Express Healthcare Staffing. I'm also the creator of the Day One List. For more than 30 years, I've had the privilege of helping people find meaningful work. Along the way, I've learned that every opportunity begins with a relationship. Every career, every partnership, every breakthrough starts because someone believed in someone else. Because every relationship is an opportunity to change someone's life. Together with our teams, we're working hard with the goal of putting one million people to work. That mission has taught me something I'll never forget. People may open doors, but trust is what keeps those doors open. Throughout my life, I've been fortunate to build relationships with people who've challenged me, coached me, believed in me, and showed up when it mattered most. They're the people I call first. They're my day one list. The day one list isn't about your contacts, your followers, or the size of your network. It's about the people who have earned your trust, the people who answer the phone, the people who tell you the truth, the people who show up when life gets hard, and the people who don't just know your name, they know your character. And when they say, I've got a person for that, the trust and credibility they've built is immediately transferred to you. That's the power of relationships. That's how opportunity moves through a trusted network of people you call first. That's what this podcast is all about. Each episode, our host, Hunter Schwenke, alongside co-host Andrew Morgan, sits down for meaningful conversations with business leaders, entrepreneurs, community members, associates, clients, and remarkable people from all over the world to uncover the relationships behind their success. Because behind every success story is someone who believed first. We'll ask questions like who changed the trajectory of your life? Who would answer your call at 2 a.m.? And what does it really take to earn the opportunity to become someone's first call? They're about trust, loyalty, service, growth, follow through, action, accountability, and ultimately the relationships that change lives. In our first episode, I sit down with Hunter and Andrew to share where the heart of the day one list originates. The experiences that shape my perspective and why I believe relationships remain our greatest competitive advantage in a world that changes faster than ever. My hope is that every episode inspires you to strengthen a relationship, reconnect with someone important, become more intentional with the people around you, and maybe even become the person someone else thinks to call first. Every episode will leave you with one idea, one relationship, or one action that can change the path of your career, your business, or your life. Because being on someone's day one list isn't something you're given. It's something you earn, one conversation, one act of kindness, and one kept promise at a time. Thank you for joining us. Welcome to the day one list. Let's build stronger relationships, help more people find meaningful work, and together earn the opportunity to become someone's first call. The day one list is proudly brought to you by Express Employment Professionals, Specialized Recruiting Group, and Express Healthcare Staffing, the people you call first.
