TURN DEFEAT INTO TRIUMPH
Whenever Jason Freeman speaks to an audience, be it an intimate mastermind in North County San Diego or an assembly of 1,500 high school students in Austin, Minnesota, he is absolutely, 100% committed to bringing his speech impediment with him.
Audiences see him up on stage, against all odds, living his dream, which helps them see their dreams as closer and more attainable. Jason has a unique walk, a love for country music, a sweet tooth, undergrad degrees in English and social work, a master of fine arts in poetry, a Tedx Talk and a book he authored called “Awkwardly Awesome: Embracing My Imperfect Best.”
For much of his life, he struggled to accept his voice, his body, and his place in the world. Desperate for a change, he set out on a decade-long journey of rigorous self-development. He studied with gifted coaches, stretched his beliefs with yoga teachers, and sat in attendance at more workshops and seminars than he can properly recount.
Did You Know?
Jason once ate only turnips, blue berries, and ramen noodles for a week because somebody told him that it would cure his speech impediment.
“I can’t count how many people came up to me after the event and said how inspired they were by Jason’s story and how they’re leaving different than the way they walked in.“

Did You Know?
By far the stinkiest job Jason has ever had was burying a cow that had been gone for over a month.
His goal is to speak to millions of people in his lifetime. He hopes to inspire them to see the best in themselves, take their next step forward and persevere towards their dreams not only for themselves but for the health and happiness of generations to come.
Jason is deeply grateful for all his magnificent friends, colleagues and wonderful parents, who still inspire him every day.
