Send us a textWhat turns a sunflower harvester and a babysitting guitarist into entrepreneurs? In this episode of Counter Current, Aaron Smith and Jack Hudson reveal the unexpected starts that fueled their business journeys—from machete-swinging in soggy fields to building websites for gas money. We dig into the grit of early jobs, the mentors who bet on you (not just your idea), and why Indiana’s tight-knit networks trump the DC grind. Full of laughs, lessons on finding your “monetizable passion,” and a fresh spin on work-life integration.
