  • Summary

  • Let's be honest: building a company from nothing is freaking hard. It has been for me. I grew my company Accelity from 0 to 7 figures with no partners and no funding. I'm also a startup mentor, a speaker, and a dedicated mother of three. Welcome to The Art of Entrepreneurship podcast—I’m your host, Jackie Hermes. Listen in as I share all the mistakes I’ve made and, more importantly, what I’ve learned from them, with no fluff, and no rose-colored glasses. The Art of Entrepreneurship is a show where we cut through the BS and dig into what it actually takes to start and grow a business. I’ll be giving unfiltered advice 1 episode per week, up to 20 minute per episode. I want you to walk away from this podcast with the mindset and tools you need to be successful. This podcast is for entrepreneurs, side hustlers, and busy professionals with a short attention span (like me)—you’ll get quick-hitting, actionable information in every single episode. If you give me your time, I promise it won't be wasted. Now let's get to work!

  • Discernment for leaders: what’s important—and what isn’t

    Discernment for leaders: what’s important—and what isn’t
    Feb 17 2025

    In this episode of The Art of Entrepreneurship, we’re prioritizing discernment. As you grow in your career, it’s not about spotting every problem, it’s about knowing which ones truly matter.

    I’ll share how I’ve learned to filter what’s urgent versus what’s important, let go of the need for control, and focus on the bigger picture (not just my personal preferences).

    Tune in to hear how sharpening your discernment skills can make you a stronger leader and help you center on what truly moves the needle.

  • Victim vs. victor

    Victim vs. victor
    Feb 10 2025

    In this episode of The Art of Entrepreneurship, we’re exploring a simple yet powerful way to reframe your mindset: choosing a victor mentality over a victim attitude. Embracing accountability in business, relationships, and daily life can lead to greater success and fulfillment.

    I’ll share how I’ve seen this play out with clients, in my own experiences, and in pivotal moments that reshaped how I handle both wins and setbacks.

    Tune in to hear why adopting a victor mentality (even when it’s tough) puts you in control—and how small mindset shifts can create big change.
