Jason Goldberg is an international bestselling author, transformational speaker and former rapper who opened shows for the Wu-Tang Clan. He joins us today to talk about how he radically turned his life around by the power of self responsibility. Raised by a single mother and having never known his father, Jason discovered as a child that making people laugh was a way to fill the void he felt inside. He talks about how humour became his shadow and that it was his way of avoiding his own internal pain. He shares how although comedy was born from a place of pain, he eventually learned how to turn it around to help other people. Jason opens up about the low point in his life when his marriage fell apart and he was left obese, depressed, suicidal and alone. This was the moment he knew he had to reach out for help and start taking responsibility for where his life had ended up. He shares how it was the beginning of a radical transformation towards hope and a bright future ahead.
