Jason Powell – Is an incredible Warrior! He’s writer, director, coach, comedian, speaker and podcaster. His warrior journey began at age 9 in an all female house. The year his mother remarried he was diagnosed with dyslexia. He lost his grandmother and great-grandmother before the age of 13. His Mom and stepdad (with whom he never got along) worked long hours, moved around a lot and left him to fend for himself, unsupervised and exposed to bad influences! Because of this part of his journey he co-founded a group called H.O.P.E. (helping others with prevention education) and he won the governor’s cup for writing and directing a prevention commercial. He studied education in college in order to coach football and was blessed to find his way to Texas where a friend gave him an opportunity to coach gymnastics that led to him becoming a team coach. He then moved to Minnesota as a head coach of a large gymnastics gym, got married and then bought the gym. Then Zombies showed up big time leading to divorce and 2 mental crises. On the road to recovery he started a comedy career doing stand-up. After getting remarried with 2 young children he returned to coaching and is now helping those struggling with the Zombie of depression through speaking on coaching, mentoring and overcoming depression and his recently launched podcast “The Broken Joker”
