The Unfiltered Truth About Entrepreneurship w/ Adam Braun - a podcast by Chase Jarvis

Adam Braun is an author and entrepreneur who you may know from his work with Pencils of Promise, an organization that creates schools and other projects that bring education to underserved populations living in rural poverty. He’s also the author of the book “The Promise Of A Pencil” and more recently the founder of a super exciting education startup called MissionU whose model is 1 year of intense, skill-based education with NO upfront tuition - instead, you give them a percentage of your income once you land that sweet job.

Today on the podcast,

* Why he walked away from a career in management consulting to dedicate himself to his passion of giving the rural poor access to education via Pencils Of Promise

* We get into a topic I’ve been touching on a lot lately which is balance. As a new father and entrepreneur this is a big challenge for Adam and he speaks very candidly about the real tradeoffs he has to make between his company, his family and his health

* On that note, he also shares some of the habits and hacks he’s developed such as his journaling routine and practice of putting his phone in airplane mode in another room before going to bed

Enjoy!
