Summary

Jason Hewlett is one of the top speakers and entertainers in the country. He is a National Speakers Association Hall of Fame Inductee and has toured the world performing and speaking in front of huge crowds of adoring fans. In this episode, Jason and I reflect on what it was like seeing his full year of bookings disappear over a couple of days due to the pandemic. He then talks about being resourceful, staying positive, learning to be a digital performer, and what the future holds for this legendary artist as we come out of the pandemic. We also talk about his awesome book - The Promise To The One, as well as his work as one of the founders of The Promise Institute. Jason's name has been mentioned more than any other person else by past guests. He is well loved, admired, and respected by everyone who knows him. Just spending time with him, it is easy to see why.
