Jordan Sarmo
We’re so stoked to have the absolute legend, Jordan Sarmo, with us for this week’s Dreamos Round Table. Jordan’s a music producer, songwriter, and artist developer pursuing his massive dreams from Orange County, CA.
As a creative entrepreneur, Jordan not only creates and builds companies, but he’s a sought after adviser for entertainment brands, record labels, and artists, turning them into household names. The songs Jordan’s produced and written have over 1 million monthly listeners, and that number continues to grow.
With his faith in God as the foundation of all he does, Jordan continues to reach as many people who will listen through the music he creates and the companies that he builds. We know you’ll be encouraged and inspired as you hear more from his heart, story, and pursuit.
What dream are you currently turning into reality?
I have recently started to understand that my dream is simply living a life that has meaning. For me, that meaning is found when working on a project I’m passionate about, surrounding myself with those I love and are inspired by, and helping others find their own purpose and meaning.
When did you first realize you discovered your dream?
I get most of my “aha moments” coming out of huge times of pain and struggle. It’s those times that help me to self-reflect and discover where I want to spend my time, energy and creativity.
How does your faith go hand in hand with pursuing your dream?
My faith is the foundation and anchor in all I do. I always tell my friends that if it wasn’t for my faith, I would be one depressed human being. It’s through faith in the promises of God that have given me the strength to get through the darkest times of my life.
What encouragement would you give someone who’s going after their dream?
Surround yourself with people that have already achieved the goals you are reaching for. Also, make sure to plan out your week and fill it up. Creating a schedule will keep you focused on achieving your goals. Last thing I’ll say is to read as much as you can about the areas you need to grow in the most. Development is a huge factor in accomplishing your goals.
