So many tax pros find themselves facing challenges that prevent their growth either personally or professionally. In this episode, Jesse shares vulnerably and openly about the challenges he faced and how he overcame them.

Humility, consistency, care, effort, empathy, patience. These are all things Jesse embodies that have made all the difference for him.

As we talk through his career, we get to The Pronto Path step of Multiplication, where Jesse finds himself today.
