He did everything people told him to do.

Got clean. Went to college. Got a good job. Made good money.

And he was still unhappy.

In this episode, we talk with Jeremiah Watson. Jeremiah just quit his corporate job. He now runs an 18-property cohosting business in Los Angeles. He is the 73rd person to leave their job through STR Secrets.

Here's what you'll learn:

→ How Jeremiah went from addiction and jail to building a real business

→ Why he lost $50K his first year — and what he changed

→ How he got his first cohosting deal with one cold call

→ The small team that runs his business today

→ His goal: 66 properties by the end of 2026

This is what actually doing the work looks like.
