Bio: 
My name is Jay Aigner, CEO of JDAQA a software testing agency with around $2M ARR. Father of 5, student pilot, and amateur astrophotographer. My 5 for 5 (5 am wakeup, workout, stretch, meditate, and journal) has been something friends, family members, and fans of my podcast have keyed on as something they really appreciate. 
 I also host a podcast called The First Customer where I interview successful founders about how they got their first customer.
 I've been featured on a couple podcasts and would be honored to be a guest on your show. I think I would provide a relatable story for your audience as someone who went from the 9-5 to consulting to the freedom of running my own business. My family is also currently being featured in a documentary about time management and successful people spend it.
