How do you build wealth from nothing? Jeremy Jenson did it, going from a childhood of moving between rented houses in Alief, Texas, to running Encore Search Partners, one of Houston's largest privately held recruiting firms. Shawn Lynch sits down with him to unpack exactly how, and why the strategy that gets you to your first million looks nothing like the strategy that gets you to fifty. Jeremy talks openly about growing up with a single mom, watching wealthier classmates drive brand new trucks in high school, and how that gap planted the seed for the ambition that drives him today.The two get into the real framework behind scaling a company at every stage, from the hustle and grind it takes to hit your first million, to the leverage and reinvestment that carries you from one million to ten, to the relationships and trust that carry you from ten million to fifty. Jeremy explains why sales fixes almost every other problem in a business, why he would rather hire a strong operator than try to do everything himself, and why entrepreneurs who cut corners for quick money rarely make it past a few good years. Shawn and Jeremy also talk about parenting, raising ambitious kids without raising entitled ones, teaching financial literacy early, and why the real marker of success has far less to do with the size of your bank account than most people assume.Subscribe to Official Success Formula for more conversations like this one, and catch the full episode on the podcast at the link below.

In Redefining the Immigrant South: Indian and Pakistani Immigration to Houston During the Cold War (University of North Carolina Press), Uzma Quraishi (Sam Houston State University) follows the Cold War-era journeys of South Asian international students from U.S. Information Service reading rooms in India and Pakistan, to the halls of the University of Houston, to the suburban subdivisions of Alief and Sugar Land. This student migration between 1960 and 1980 shows how public diplomacy programs overseas catalyzed the arrival of highly educated, middle-class Asians in the U.S. before the Hart-Celler Act of 1965. Drawing on archival documents, GIS data, and oral interviews, Quraishi investigates how Indian and Pakistani immigrants forged an “interethnic” identity in Houston and located themselves—both socially and geographically—in the midst of a booming yet segregated Sunbelt city. She conceptualizes their mobility as “brown flight,” a process that simultaneously strengthened ethnic bonds even as it reinforced racial and class barriers. By exploring the links between international and local scales, Redefining the Immigrant South will interest scholars from many fields, including Asian American history; histories of the U.S. South, immigration, and U.S. foreign relations; and sub/urban studies.

Send us a textEpisode 12 is out now from Alief's own IYKUK!Houston born, Alief raised, IYKUK started as yet another club kid in the scene, stepped up as a photographer, then picked up a board with that money. Two years later she's played in McAllen, Dallas, and soon New York City. Rap and RnB raised her, house and UK garage made up her adolescence, but club music made her what she is today, a full circle moment for her musical tastes. Her usual sets ebb and flow with stripped back breakbeats, chopped up samples, an occasional 4x4 beat, and as always, a desire for fun on the dance floor. After all this time she keeps the same motto she did since she realized she was great at what she does; World Domination. She is also 1/2 of "Los Pollos Hermanos" with Youngbrown.FOLLOW IYKYK ON SOCIAL MEDIA!https://soundcloud.com/iykuk777https://www.instagram.com/iykuk777/https://soundcloud.com/los-pollos-hermanos-htxSupport the showThe South Gots Something to Say!
