About Jeremy Hanson

Jeremy Hanson is an entrepreneur, business owner, and podcast network founder with a lifetime of experience in ownership and operations. He began his entrepreneurial journey at the age of 17 and has remained actively involved in building, operating, and advising businesses ever since.

Over the years, Jeremy has owned and operated successful companies across multiple industries, including manufacturing, sales, construction, cleaning services, pressure washing, consulting, and media. His experience spans hands-on operations, leadership under pressure, scaling service businesses, and navigating economic cycles.

Jeremy is also the founder of a growing podcast network, producing multiple shows focused on entrepreneurship, family, leadership, and real-world problem solving. His work reflects a belief that ownership is not just about income, but about responsibility, independence, and building a meaningful life.

Background and Values

Jeremy was raised in a family shaped by both discipline and independence. His parents divorced when he was young. His mother was a successful CPA who owned and operated her own accounting firms, and his father was a bee farmer and electrician who built his livelihood through skilled, practical work.

He was also deeply influenced by his grandparents, whose lives represented a wide range of working-class excellence and independence, including farming, traveling mechanical work, owner-operator trucking, and education. These influences shaped Jeremy’s understanding of work, responsibility, and service.

From his family, Jeremy learned the importance of a strong work ethic, faith, independent thinking, and the willingness to question assumptions. These principles remain central to both his business philosophy and the themes of the podcast.

Life, Family, and Perspective

Jeremy has been married to his wife for 24 years, and together they have raised 13 children. Family is not a side note in his story, but a central measure of success. His children are mostly grown, successful, and grounded, reinforcing his belief that true achievement includes stability at home, not just results at work.

This perspective heavily informs the podcast. Episodes often address the realities of leadership, stress, responsibility, and decision-making as they affect not only businesses, but marriages, families, and personal health.

The Jeremy Hanson Podcast does not separate life and business. It treats them as deeply connected, and explores how strong values and disciplined thinking can support both.

Why This Podcast Is Different

Unlike motivational or guru-driven business podcasts, The Jeremy Hanson Podcast is built on lived experience. The lessons shared come from years of operating companies, navigating hard seasons, and building a life through ownership rather than shortcuts.

The podcast speaks directly to people who value responsibility over hype, discipline over trends, and substance over appearances. It is for listeners who want to think independently, question assumptions, and build something real.
