149 | When with Jeff Wellen

The Military Veteran Dad Podcast

What do you wish you knew when you first got started?

We spend way too much wondering how things could have been different, but we also don't spend nearly enough time learning from people ahead of us to make sure we don't repeat the same mistakes.

Our guest today Jeff decided to write a book titled When: Things I Wish I Knew When I Was STARTING OUT, STARTING OVER, and Trying To GET AHEAD.

Jeff has spent the last 38 years traveling a journey of success, failure, the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. A journey that started with a desire to be a teacher that was put on hold by a new desire to become a leader of a company.

Now after a successful career as a senior executive for companies like Michaels, Fossil and Haggar, Jeff has come back to where his journey started. The desire to teach and mentor. He wants to help individuals and companies reach their full potential. His passions are two-fold.

First, is to help individuals realize how to get the most out of themselves. To help assist them with getting rid of all the anchors of doubt that weigh people down and stop them from finding their true passion. He wants you to find fulfillment in your life and career. His belief is not just to dream the impossible but actually do it.

Second, Jeff’s corporate experience can still prove invaluable for any company that is looking to make a change or trying to figure out how to get out of troubled waters.
