Jason Shutt was on Breaking Business Barriers in season one. He openly told his story of what life was like with no family and living on the streets of LA as a kid.
As you can imagine, it was all about survival. Think about fighting for your life every day here in America with no family support. It's a scary thought.
That tough life led him to prison - including one maximum security prison where life can even be more difficult than the streets of LA.
He made a commitment to himself to change and be a productive member of society. He found work that he enjoyed and happiness ensued.
Fast forward to now. He bootstrapped his own business and went all in. Anyone that's ever done this knows that it's never easy.
Your host Brent Duhaime caught up with Jason and his journey.
