We believe small business owners shouldn’t have to choose between growth and peace of mind.

IAMJS exists to help founders build scalable companies that align with their values, families, and long-term vision.

Our Philosophy

We don’t prescribe; we collaborate.

We meet founders where they are, co-create strategies that work in the real world, and celebrate progress every step of the way.
