From Car Dealership to Dream Driven with Jason VanDevere
Episode 222
Wednesday, 15 April, 2026
#222 - When was the last time you let yourself dream without limits, not as a cute idea, but as a serious practice that could change your life? I sit down with Jason VanDevere, an entrepreneur, planner creator, and author of Dream Driven, to talk about what happens when you walk away from the “sure thing” and build a life that actually fits.Jason grew up in Akron, Ohio in a big family with a cow farm and a car dealership legacy. After college he entered the dealership track with a clear path to long-term success, but the deeper he went, the clearer it became that he needed something else. We unpack how a simple search for better time management and goal setting tools turned into a planner business, and why the early years felt brutal even while the product was selling.We go beyond tactics into mindset and meaning. Jason opens up about fear of failure, the rush of doing too much, and the surprising idea that we can get addicted to stress and inadequacy. From there, the conversation moves into faith and Catholic spirituality, daily prayer and journaling, and the power of silent retreats for clarity. We also break down his “dream-driven” approach to entrepreneurship, why focus beats endless options, and how family boundaries reshaped his definition of success.If you’re chasing goals but feel stuck in survival mode, hit play, then share this with a friend who needs a spark.
