The VIBE with Kelly Cardenas

Erik is truly a man of integrity, work ethic and an overcomer. Growing up with a complicated childhood and broken home, to raising himself from the age of 14. Unfortunately finding trouble along the way desperately trying to fill the gaping voids in his life. As a young man Erik found himself empty and tired of settling for less. After the feverish pursuit of the Holy Spirit, Erik decided to surrender and trust the one that would never let him down. Once Erik gave his life to Christ, his life completely turned around. He met a beautiful woman and a new chapter was written. Now, Erik and his wife of 16+ years and their two children live in Northern Idaho and live a humble and blessed life. Together they are breaking the cycles handed down to them of addictions, depression, abuse, and lies. They are leaving a new legacy for their next generation built on a biblical foundation. Along with being the sole provider for his family, Erik is an entrepreneur and avid MMA fan. Which he has created the best MMA podcast of the northwest. He believes in giving back and honoring those that have served our country. With his companies Top Rated MMA and The Erik Allen Show he is able to do just that. By lifting others up and giving back to the community and veterans through great organizations like Hire Heroes USA. Another one of the ways Erik is able to give back is by sharing his story and encouraging others, no matter what path they are on to find hope and purpose. Erik’s natural approach ability and heart for people make him a great speaker for different events and podcasts. He knows that sometimes having the opportunity to meet someone and hear their story and how they’ve overcome is the courage someone might need to find new strength in their own battle. Erik might have been dealt a rough hand, but with the help of his Heavenly Father and a humble heart, Erik is taking each day as it comes and making it count.

Jason Yates President, John Paul Mitchell Systems® Jason Yates began his career more than 30 years ago as a hairdresser in the UK, working his way up from salon apprentice to manager and eventually managing director for a group of 22 salons. During that time, he also worked as a platform artist and educator for a hair care manufacturer, which provided him with additional opportunities in the industry and opened a new career path beyond the salon. Jason joined JPMS™ in 2012 as Vice President of Marketing, where he led the marketing strategy for the entire portfolio of hair care, hair color and appliance brands, later expanding his leadership role to make him the first-ever Vice President of Sales and Marketing in the company’s history. With hands-on experience in every facet of the professional beauty industry—from hairstyling to business management, marketing and sales—Jason was appointed to Chief Operating Officer and now President, where he oversees the company’s global daily operations. The guiding principles behind his leadership role include growth through product innovation, strategic and selective partner alliances, continued investment in salon education, and the commitment to help salons grow their business. While his journey from hairdresser to executive may be unusual, Jason observes: “We work in an amazing industry that allows us to go in many different directions, especially if you are a young professional stylist. My career may not be a typical path for a hairdresser, but it's certainly one that can happen.” EXECUTIVE PRODUCER-WILLIAM SIMMONS
