031 – Be Selfish for the Greater Good – Jamie Jay
Jaime Jay is the owner of Bottleneck Virtual Assistants based in Springfield, Missouri. At the core, Jamie is a connector of personalities and brands. He constantly challenges himself to be a better human being. He is also an amateur hockey player and starter Geek who truly enjoys helping his clients rediscover themselves, their companies and how to realize their why.
Jaime Jay made some early career decisions that were motivated by his desire to unburden his mother rather than to begin to shape his future. When his father was suddenly sentenced to jail on embezzlement charges, his mother, with very limited resources, was struggling to take care of Jaime and his younger brother. Jaime enlisted in the US Army. Later, he joined corporate America and found that he “just was not a corporate person”. Eventually, he went the entrepreneurial route.
Would you leave an honest rating and review on Apple Podcast? They are extremely helpful and I read each and every one of them. Thanks for the inspiration!
In this episode we discuss:
* How Jamie joined the U.S. Army to unburden his mom after his dad went to jail on embezzlement charges; how they were homeless and his mom was left to care for him and his younger brother on very limited resources.
* His experience in the Army, including getting married at 22, having a child, and soon after discharge being asked for a divorce. Specifically, he shares he “was homeless with only $364 in my pocket.”
* How Jamie felt he was back where he started as if he had no sense of direction.
* The irony that as a young child, he had a dream of becoming a CEO in the corner office, unlike most kids who have visions of becoming a firefighter or policeman.
* Jamie’s experience traveling into corporate America and “living the dream” until he realized the materialism of that life was not fulfilling.
* His current position as a business owner and why he is happiest now.
