Ep. 309: Jameson Galey - Learning and Growing with Every Career Leap


Listen Later

On this episode of Count Me In, Adam Larson sits down with Jameson Galey, CMA, CPA, and dynamic finance leader whose career has spanned TV production, entrepreneurship, and innovative tech startups. Jameson is also the founder of Ledgeroo, a platform designed to help bring accounting education to the world by making it affordable and accessible through bite-sized, gamified lessons. He shares how an unexpected opportunity launched him into accounting, why he fell in love with the field, and the wild ride of becoming a CFO at just 29 years old (including a “tiny” life change: getting married right before the pandemic hit!). From navigating the tricky finances behind hit shows like "Married at First Sight," to building financial systems for a solar tech startup, Jameson’s story is packed with lessons about taking risks, hustling for what you want (hint: sometimes that involves Craigslist), and keeping your passion for learning alive.

 

Jameson gives us a candid look at what it’s like to transition between industries, build your own tools from scratch, and bravely bet on yourself when everyone says otherwise. Whether you’re an accounting pro, an aspiring entrepreneur, or just love a good real-world success story, you’ll find inspiration and maybe a few laughs in this engaging, relatable conversation.
