Jared Rosenthal shares his incredible journey from corporate CEO to launching Health Street—starting with a self-painted RV and scaling it into a nationwide drug and DNA testing business. He reveals how relentless grit, late-night emergencies, and hands-on hustle led to a tech-powered company serving over 50,000 clinics across the U.S.
• Left a CEO role to start mobile drug testing out of a used RV
• Branded his RV with “Who’s Your Daddy” for DNA testing and landed a VH1 show
• Built a 24/7 business responding to accidents, testing captains and pilots
• Taught himself tech from scratch and built custom APIs to automate operations
• Scaled from a one-man show to a national network of clinics and corporate clients
• Uses inbound marketing and SEO instead of outbound sales for high-margin growth
• Self-funded the entire business, balancing reinvestment with sustainable income
• Shares emotional stories that shaped his purpose, including stopping an intoxicated pilot
• Stresses the value of doing every job—from mopping floors to writing code
• Warns against overreliance on Google and stresses the need to diversify marketing
Tune in to hear how Jared turned a secondhand RV into a multimillion-dollar platform, built with hustle, purpose, and an unshakable belief in doing the hard things.
