Jai Long Shares Lessons Across Industries

Jai Long, an entrepreneur, educator and author, attributes his two-decade-plus success to following curiosity across multiple industries rather than chasing a single perfect career. He began at 20 with a café and expanded into photography, education, live events, digital products, property investment and media, mentoring thousands of entrepreneurs along the way. Today he leads Longhouse Press, hosts the Make Your Break Podcast, created the Six-Figure Business Map, founded the Wedding Photography Summit, and is preparing a book titled Make Your Break to be published November 3, 2026. He emphasizes that no one venture alone made him successful; each business taught a different lesson, and staying curious helps navigate uncertainty and rapid technology change. The forthcoming book aims to help readers embrace change, challenge limiting beliefs, and seize opportunities in an increasingly uncertain world. Long contends that today’s entrepreneurs have unprecedented opportunities, provided they adapt, keep learning, and build skills that technology cannot replace.
