He is a successful CEO, author, and public speaker who works tirelessly to help individuals and families become financially free.

In this autobiography, a raw and heartbreaking piece of storytelling, Jeff invites listeners along on the “rags to riches” journey of his life.

From what seemed to be a perfect childhood, things quickly spiraled out of control: from his father’s suicide and years spent in foster care to his mother’s untimely death and being orphaned at age eight. Along the way, Jeff shares details of the tumultuous years spent as a homeless teenager and the life-altering decision to change the negative trajectory of his journey.

One Powerful Story

This is one of the powerful stories that I have ever heard. This should be on the must listen list of all entrepreneurs, especially those who come from the school of hard knocks. In truth, Jeff’s story (background) is all of the hard knock kids’ story. He saw his through and didn’t quit! This book is not singular, it is a blend of self determination, joy and pain, self-examination, self-improvement, accountability, coming to turns with yourself, business education and a lesson in trusting God! I encourage all to purchase and listen to this timeless gem and offering to the human family.
