Description

This week’s guest on Own Your Business is a risk-taker who rose to the top by jumping off cliffs and building parachutes on the way down.

Chris Jespersen is the owner of Storybox Cinema and one of Harper’s Bazaar’s top videographers. He also founded The Madison, a large event space in Cleveland, Ohio, which is fast becoming one of the go-to venues in the city.

And he just turned 30.

How did he do it all so quickly?

He’s the first to say that it started by saying “yes” to the opportunities that came his way. He didn’t hesitate. He didn’t doubt himself. And he didn’t wait for the perfect time.

He seized the moment in front of him - whatever that happened to be.

I hope you enjoy our conversation. It’s a lesson in how you, too, can thrive when you choose to not just survive.
