If you're a father or a parent, I can't think of anything more devastating than losing your child. I met Jason in San Diego 18 months ago when he introduced me at a speech and told me his story. A successful businessman man, CEO of several companies, a problem solver who said he missed the signs of his awesome 14yr-old's depression, self-harm, and now in on a crusade to educate the masses. He started ChooseLife.org a non-profit helping raise awareness of teen suicide, helping parents see the signs and reconnect with their kids. Jason's documentary "Tell My Story" is coming out soon and is a must watch. He came with his film crew to a speech I gave in Lake Tahoe to 1000 Boy Scouts, we talked by the campfire after and cried together. 

Check out more on Jason's mission at Chooselife.org and don't miss his upcoming documentary "Tell My Story".
