This week’s episode of Make It Happen Mondays hits deeper than most—with someone who’s more than just a guest: Roderick Jefferson is family. A globally respected sales enablement leader, keynote speaker, and author of The Stroke of Success, Roderick shares the story of how a relentless hustle nearly cost him everything—after suffering a stroke that left him with just a 2% chance of survival.

We unpack what really matters when life slams the brakes on your career, your health, and your identity. From the early warning signs he ignored, to the mental, emotional, and physical battles of recovery, Roderick opens up about the shift from burnout to balance—and how vulnerability, connection, and purpose have taken center stage in his leadership and life.

This is not just a conversation about sales or business—this is about perspective, resilience, and redefining success. If you’re feeling the weight of burnout, or just need a moment of clarity in the chaos, don’t miss this one.

And if you’re looking for a keynote speaker who speaks with power, purpose, and lived experience—book Roderick. You won’t regret it.
