Bio

What does an award-winning entrepreneur, a TEDx Speaker, a bacon-atarian (thats a vegetarian who still eats bacon),a funky sock lover, a former rapper (who opened for the Wu-Tang Clan -YES, really!) and a previously 332lb man (who has since lost over 130lbs despite his affinity for bacon)have in common? They are all the same guy! Jason Goldberg (JG for short) is the King of Playful Sales, Success and Self-Leadership. He is a geek, turned entrepreneur, international speaker, Edu-tainer, creator of the 8-week, life-changing, joy-creating, business-transforming “Playful Prosperity”Program and author of the #1 International Best-Seller on SELF-Leadership: “Prison Break: Vanquish the Victim, Own Your Obstacles, and Lead Your Life.”

After spending nearly 15 years in technology, followed by co-founding an award-winning executive transportation company and then serving as CEO of a technology commercialization firm in partnership with NASA, JG decided that there was something more he could be doing to make an impact in people’s lives and businesses with his experience, his wit and his ability to simplify complex topics.He now blends his love of personal growth, comedy (and even rap music), with his speaking, training and workshops to help people open their minds, transform their lives, grow their businesses and pee their pants from laughter (…okay maybe not literally on that last one, but no judgment if it happens).

JG brings the Aha’s and the Haha’s to thousands of aspiring and inspiring leaders, entrepreneurs and groups every year to create the mindset and the skill set to become powerful Self-Leaders, be more prosperous, have more fun and create a bigger impact in the world!He has shared the stage with some of the world’s greatest thought-leaders and innovators in human potential and performance including Dr. Sean Stephenson (The 3 Foot Giant),Don Miguel Ruiz (The Four Agreements),Vishen Lakhiani (CEO of Mindvalley),Steven Kotler (Stealing Fire), Marisa Peer (the UK’s psychotherapist to the stars)and so many others that he hopes will impress if for some reason these other ones don’t!
