Some people plan to start a business; others stumble into it through a series of unexpected events. That’s exactly how Jimmy and Jenny found themselves becoming unexpected entrepreneurs. It all started when Jenny took a safety training class while working at a Silicon Valley startup, and unknowingly crossed paths with the company that would later change both Jenny and Jimmy's lives. In this episode, they open up about the twists and turns that led them from employees to entrepreneurs. From rediscovering an old Life Safety training manual that resurfaced at just the right time, to making big life decisions outside a Denny's restaurant with their kids in tow. It’s a story of risk, resilience, and a whole lot of learning along the way.

What if the way we handle emergencies could also be applied to everyday life? In this episode, Jimmy breaks down the safety hierarchy, who to take care of first in an emergency, and why this is important even outside of the safety field. He explains why prioritizing yourself isn’t selfish, it’s strategic, and how this shift in thinking can make you a stronger partner, leader, team member, or decision-maker. But the real a-ha moment? A conversation with his wife. Jimmy realized that the Incident Command System (ICS) - originally designed for emergency response situations - might offer some insight into navigating daily personal responsibilities too. Whether it’s tackling workplace challenges or managing family logistics, Jimmy explores how reassessing priorities, adapting to changing situations, and working as a team can create a more effective, less stressful approach to both crises at work and in everyday life.
