Episode 273 - Interview with Jeremiah August of Teardown Systems

Author: Austin Diehl November 13, 2024 Duration: 1:45:48

Many of us, find ourselves making turns in our journey, that bring us to places we didn't ever think we would end up. This is exactly the case for Jeremiah August, the owner and founder of Teardown Systems. In 2020, when the world shut down for all of us, he decided to take a chance combining a childhood passion for sewing, and drive to be a more prepared, and more capable individual, and launch a nylon company, Teardown Systems. This discussion takes us into research and development work, time management and the importance of balancing yourself with family, ethical business practices, communication and more. We spend a good amount of time talking about both the 2A as a industry, and also as a community, and the various ways we can all find different degrees of success for ourselves, in it. I enjoyed talking with Jeremiah very much, and I believe many of you will find inspiration and solid takeaways from our chat.
