While having professional success, Jason experienced financial distress and personal dissatisfaction. His quest to find a balance between achievements and fulfillment led him to resign from his executive job and backpack through 20 countries in 12 months.

He is now living financially well and educates others on achieving financial and career goals without sacrificing life satisfaction.
