Story & Lesson Highlights with Jourdan Boyle of Fort Worth

We’re looking forward to introducing you to Jourdan Boyle. Check out our conversation below.

Hi Jourdan, thank you so much for taking time out of your busy day to share your story, experiences and insights with our readers. Let’s jump right in with an interesting one: Are you walking a path—or wandering?
I’m doing a bit of both. I’m definitely on the journey of spiritual, mental, and financial growth while the Side Quests have been out of this World….honestly even the side quests are intentional for moving towards the goal, so really my wandering is a part of the path.

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
Some people go to film school—I went with a cell phone and a whole lot of determination. I’m Jourdan Boyle, a self-taught media specialist who turned shooting music videos on my phone into editing shows for TBN, creating VFX for CMT’s 50 Years of Fan Fair documentary, and even producing animations that played at SeaWorld Conventions.

My approach has always been simple: learn something new every single day. That mindset has taken me from hustling solo to working with clients ranging from the Texas Leaders Forum to Def Jam artists. Along the way, I’ve built a career out of saying ‘why not?’ to challenges that seemed impossible.

These days, while continuing to serve my clients, I’m chasing the next big dream—filming a documentary or even a full series. I might be a bit socially awkward and used to working alone, but that’s part of what makes my story unique: I’ve proven that passion, persistence, and curiosity can turn a one-man hustle into a career that reaches thousands.

Thanks for sharing that. Would love to go back in time and hear about how your past might have impacted who you are today. What did you believe about yourself as a child that you no longer believe?
As a kid, I thought my mission in life was to make sure nobody was ever mad at me—basically a full-time, unpaid people-pleasing job. These days, I’ve retired from that role. I’ve learned you can’t make everyone happy, and trying to is the fastest way to lose yourself. Now I focus on being authentic, and the right people stick around.

What did suffering teach you that success never could?
Suffering taught me patience, grit, and how to keep going when nothing is working. Success never makes you question who you are, but suffering does—and that’s where I found my strength. Pain showed me lessons no trophy ever could: how to be resourceful, how to adapt, and how to trust myself. Success feels good, but suffering built the muscle that made it possible.

Alright, so if you are open to it, let’s explore some philosophical questions that touch on your values and worldview. What do you believe is true but cannot prove?
That the earth is flat and God placed a firmament over it to divide the waters from the waters. Now, I can’t prove that—but what I do believe with all my heart is that every setback hides a setup from God for something bigger. You can’t measure it, chart it, or prove it, but I’ve lived it enough times to know it’s real. Call it faith, call it experience—but I believe God has a way of turning detours into directions.

Thank you so much for all of your openness so far. Maybe we can close with a future oriented question. What will you regret not doing? 
What I would regret most is not giving this life everything I’ve got—and not creating financial freedom that lasts beyond me, for my kids and their kids. I don’t want to build a career; I want to build a legacy. If I don’t pour it all out, then I’ve missed the point.
