Don't Let Your Past Define You with Guest Serial Entrepreneur Kevin Jerome. Looking Back at S2E38

Should Have Listened to My Mother Podcast

Today, Kevin Jerome is the proud owner of four companies, a far cry from what he thought his future would be when he was a teen. " A kid who grew up in a 2 bedroom apartment, living with 14 people, evicted twice as a teen," says Jerome, " I'm a true example of how you can turn your life around."

At a young age, Kevin taught himself to read and eventually how to drive out of necessity. He realized that no one else was going to help him, so he better learn on his own. It's that kind of determination and foresight that helped him become who he is today.

My guest is curious as to why "so many of us allow our past to hold us down?" Experiencing anxiety and insecurity because of changing schools and moving repeatedly as a teen, Kevin would now tell his younger self that "it's better to try, take chances and possibly fail, than not trying at all. But again, don't let your past define you. That was a very trying time for the young Jerome but he was determined to not have it define him.

Kevin and his mother, Marie, have a loving relationship. However, Kevin understands that there were certain circumstances that got in the way when he was growing up- she was preoccupied with other family matters when Kevin needed her most.

One thing that Kevin has be certain about "I've always wanted to be rich in mind-emotionally, spiritually and financially." He says his religious background played a part in his life philosophies, but it's his spiritual path that grounded him most.
