Since this podcast began, I’ve had the chance to connect with so many inspiring and talented thought leaders, entrepreneurs, life coaches, and other sought-after individuals within the field of personal development. 

These people have always left me with a sense I’ve learned something valuable well after our conversations have ended and I’m incredibly grateful to have had them on the show. Joining me today is someone whose literal goal is to ‘leave people five percent happier’ after meeting them and aims to integrate the lessons he’s written about in his best-selling book, Prison Break, into his everyday life — Jason Goldberg!

Jason is an award-winning entrepreneur and passionate TEDx speaker. In this episode, we discuss his personal background within the field of personal growth, how he got to where he is today after undergoing bariatric surgery, and what the pivotal moment was for him when deciding to address his weight in such a drastic way.
