Born in Poland and now a self-made magnate in the U.S., Jarek’s story is nothing short of inspiring. From working as a dishwasher and factory worker to creating a massive real estate portfolio, Jarek shares his journey of perseverance, hard work, and strategic decision-making. Learn how he managed to juggle multiple jobs while learning a new language and assimilating into a new culture, and how gut-based decisions played a critical role in his success.
In this episode, we explore the powerful drive and profound gratitude that many immigrants experience, offering a fresh perspective on the opportunities available in the United States. Hear personal stories of how Jarek and others have leaned on community support and continuous learning to navigate the complex world of business.

Jarek's tale is a testament to the value of resilience and adaptability in the face of adversity.
But success comes with its own set of challenges. We tackle mental health struggles, the weight of imposter syndrome, and the importance of self-care. Jarek opens up about his battles with depression and the strategies he uses to maintain mental wellness, such as morning routines and self-reflection. We also confront the conflicting feelings around wealth and materialism, and the true value of time and relationships.
