Episode Details

In this compelling episode of Small Business Pivots, we sit down with Jackie Listen, a seasoned entrepreneur, certified Ziglar Legacy and Master Coach, and author of A Place Called Through. Jackie's journey from his early days on a hog and dairy farm in Jones, Oklahoma, to becoming a successful real estate professional and banker, exemplifies resilience and determination. He shares how foundational experiences, like managing livestock as a child and navigating the 1980s oil bust, shaped his business acumen and personal growth.​
