© 2025 The Build with Jeff Kallil
Description
The Build is a real-time record of what it takes to build something that holds — in business, family, and life.
I'm Jeff Kallil — building Pure Yums, operating Convivial Brands, raising kids, and navigating the pressure that comes with doing all three at once.
This isn’t content. It’s the work behind the work. The hard calls. The internal wrestles. The quiet decisions that shape it all.
If you're building something meaningful — and want clarity without the noise — this is for you.

In this episode, I talk about an issue that many of us face as leaders and parents -- the balance between empowering our people to grow vs. giving them the answers. Often, team members will ask questions to seek immediate answers. If we simply give it to them, they can't grow. It's our responsibility to help our people to believe in themselves so they can become resourceful to seek solutions. And often, when they are the ones seeking their solutions, they come up with a bett...
I used to think I had to wait until everything was polished before I shared. That I had to be certain, scaled, or proven before I let people in. But the truth is — I’m still figuring it out. In this episode, I talk about what it means to lead, build, and create while being in process. How I’ve wrestled with doubt, pressure, and the weight of asking people to trust me when I don’t have all the answers. And why choosing to show the journey — before the breakthrough — has been one of the healthi...
I recorded this on Father's Day of 2025. In reflecting on what I have learned to over the last 6 years of becoming a Father, I've found 5 very crucial things that have enlightened my journey as a dad to 3 beautiful children: 1. I must SHOW my children how to live, not tell them. 2. Quality time > Quantity time spent. 3. Apologize when you’re wrong. Lead by example. 4. It’s my job to adjust how I communicate—understanding is my responsibility, not theirs. 5. Confident kids are b...
It's been OVER A YEAR since I released my last Podcast, and things have changed... Changed drastically. From Pure Yums, to adjusting Convivial's growth path, and doing deep inner-work to redefine what success means to me - this is the beginning. Finally. Freedom to be who I am in the journey, and enjoy every bit of the process. The hills build muscle, the valleys build grit, and as for the fleeting steady times - those a tiny gift in the madness. The Build is a d...

In this episode, I dive deep into the reasons you may be struggling with negative patterns that inevitably have you finding the same types of toxic people, toxic jobs, or toxic friend groups. You have more control over this than you think. I use an example of consistently finding toxic relationships to showcase the reasons behind the constant self-sabotage, as well as tactics for you to use to break through these patterns and become the person you know deep down you want, a...
In this episode, I reflect on what it really means to "be successful". We put such an emphasis on financial success, but not as much on our family, wellness, and over-all progress. Why is that? This episode will give you a sense of clarity on how to become fulfilled in your progress - complementing your occupation with your vocation - lightly touching on my own journey of almost working myself to death. Enjoy this check-in! With love, Jeff Have Feedback? Send...

In this episode, I talk about how you live your life everyday from the inside-out. You take yourself everywhere. And if you're not constantly self-reflecting and working on your self-worth, you will attract negative things into your life simply because you don't trust yourself, are unsure of who you are, and ultimately are directionless in your purpose. Recognizing your self-worth begins with deep self-awareness through reflection, and I will tackle ways for you to address this, and take owne...
