Leaving Austin, Escaping ‘The Matrix,’ and Building a Global Life | Jack Scheerle
Manage episode 459212970 series 3453367
Jack Scheerle isn’t just a designer with 300K+ followers — he’s someone who walked away from the 9–5, left Austin, and started redesigning his life from the ground up.
In this free-flowing and funny episode, Jack talks about quitting corporate, growing Club Retro, food culture trends, travel goals, LGBTQ+ identity, and what it really means to “escape the Matrix.”
This one’s equal parts lighthearted and deeply reflective — and proof that life doesn’t have to follow the rules we were handed.
