Episode 424
Tuesday, 19 August, 2025
In this high-impact episode of The Entrepreneurial You, host Heneka Watkis-Porter welcomes Jordan Calderon—two-time exited founder, Gen Z entrepreneur, and President of Strat Dev, one of the top 100 marketing firms in the United States. Jordan shares his journey of building businesses with long-term purpose over short-term hype, offering a refreshing perspective on sustainable scaling, employee empowerment, and betting on yourself in the face of acquisition offers. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: • Why Jordan turned down 11 acquisition offers to bet on his own growth • How his early startup success led to multiple exits before age 30 • The power of employee-first company culture in driving performance • How embracing authenticity helped Jordan build trust and credibility • Strategic insights on innovation, TikTok, AI, and future-proof marketing • How financial freedom fuels entrepreneurial risk-taking • Why control and purpose matter more than flashy exits • Details about upcoming leadership events to connect and grow COMMUNITY CONNECTION: Let us take a quick break to connect with the incredible community. Leadercast Kingston is set to return this October, uniting visionaries and innovators for a powerful day of actionable learning and meaningful connection. Then in November, it is time to pack those bags for the transformative LeadHerShip Cruise — four days of workshops, masterminds, and high-impact networking aboard Royal Caribbean’s Liberty of the Seas. Fun fact: this extraordinary ship includes a surf simulator and a cupcake shop, offering something for every leader on board.
