What if you took something really tough you went through and turned it into a way to help others going through the same thing? That’s exactly what Jason did. He went from dreaming of a baseball career to working as director of sales in the SaaS world, and then made a huge shift to becoming a men's divorce therapist. After facing his own difficult divorce, Jason realized he wanted to support others navigating similar challenges. He talks about how important it is to seek help during hard times and stay true to yourself in your work. If you're thinking about a career flip, Jason’s advice is to start small and pursue your passions on the side. He even shares a cool story about a golf caddy who turned his love for the game into a successful podcast and book, all while keeping his day job.
