The Journey with Jordan Paris

Jeremy Miller discovered entrepreneurship as a vehicle for helping others and building community while also searching for an escape from depression. He was sixteen when he opened his first custom longboard manufacturing business that focused on creating a safe space for young people to talk about life. Although the business closed with a deficit, he was drawn to entrepreneurship because of how positively it impacted his life and how much he was able to impact others. During this time, Jeremy explored and tested the depths of Twitter. In a ten-month period in 2016, Jeremy had organically reached over 100,000,000 impressions. By the age of 18, he took what he learned from his first company and built an advertising agency called Inspired Blue Media with national clients and national press recognition. By 20, Jeremy had helped launch a tech startup and co-founded a 501c3 non-profit. Visit Jeremy at jeremyrossmiller.com and @jjeremymiller on Twitter

Garrain Jones (@Garrainjones) dealt with homelessness for 2 ½ years, living out of his car and feeling like he was drowning in misery, as well as being sent to prison for 2 ½ years. Yet, going through both of those difficulties, and more, he found a way to turn his life around. Garrain’s story is a perfect example of how you can go through so many difficult things in life, but that it doesn’t mean you’ll never find success. In a place of difficulty, Garrain developed the strength to rescue himself. Health and fitness play such a big role in his life because he grew up thinking success was in material things. It wasn’t until he got healthy that he started to feel different. Once he started to feel different he then started to think, speak, and act differently. His actions changed based on how he was feeling. “You can only reach a certain level of happiness when you’re not healthy. There’s no way you can be happy if your heart isn’t healthy!” 6 ½ years after being homeless, Garrain is now a serial entrepreneur who motivates and inspires thousands. The knowledge he gained while being shaped and molded sent him down the pathway to become a Transformation Coach. He is an advocate for living a healthy life, business coach, speaker, and author of the soon-to-be-released book, “Change Your Mindset Change Your Life.” Visit Garrain: https://garrainjones.com/ | Instagram | Twitter | Facebook
