In this episode, we’re joined by Vernon “RJ” Williams and Tara Day, the powerhouse co-owners of Jacksonville Bedding Mattresses and More. Together, they dive into what it really means to build a business rooted in trust, service, and—most importantly—authenticity.
RJ shares his 10+ year journey in the sleep industry, his passion for helping people overcome serious sleep challenges, and how he balances entrepreneurship with family life and a love for travel. Tara, whose career began after a leap of faith (and a mattress delivery gig), brings unmatched energy, multitasking magic, and a deep love for people to everything she does. With backgrounds in customer service and a shared commitment to real connections, RJ and Tara unpack the heart and hustle behind their brand.
Whether you're chasing better sleep, dreaming of launching a business, or just craving a dose of real talk, this episode will leave you inspired, informed, and maybe even ready for a nap.
