Jason Millar: Ditching addiction, building a business, and giving back
Jason Millar, also known as Jay, is the inspiring founder of Jay's Barber Club and Jay's Pro Barber Academy in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Despite a difficult upbringing, which included growing up with an alcoholic mother and being orphaned at a young age, Jason has overcome drug and alcohol addiction to build a successful business that not only keeps the community looking sharp, but also gives back to it. Jason's commitment to mentoring fellow barbers and helping those less skilled to change their lives or start a new career has made him a hero to many. He has even written a book, "From Jason to Jay," about his remarkable journey. On this episode of Sound Advice: Entrepreneurs Unfiltered, Jay shares how he took control of his life and built a thriving business.
