Client reviews

  • I really got the sense that Jason cared about our organization and about helping us as individuals be successful. Jason really made his content real and accessible for people—he was honest that we would need to force ourselves to practice RSF and do the success logs. But he made it easy and something that’s not too overly burdensome. And because he included theory, research and practical tips, his presentation was applicable to all learning styles in our audience, and I think most people will have taken something valuable away.

  • I have worked with a number of business coaches in the past and none have pushed me or my staff as hard. You do an outstanding job of developing clear and concise strategies for growth and making sure the results follow. We would not have reached this level without your help.

  • 10-Minute Toughness is a solid mental-training program. In fact, I feel it is the best of its kind… [It is] what the title says: ten minutes a day that connect your talents and abilities to the outcome you are seeking. As a retired NFL player, I can see as many applications in the business world as on the football field.

  • What first drew me to Jason’s perspective, first as a professional but ultimately as a friend, was that his approach to success empowered his clients not only to succeed in life more often but also to enjoy the success they created.

  • 10-Minute Toughness literally changed my life. So many others suggest what your end result should be, but not any help on HOW to actually do it. 10-MT is a step-by-step guide to helping people achieve their goals and to be tough when it matters the most. Without 10-MT I never would have been able to go to the Olympics in 2010 and win a bronze medal. I really suggest 10-MT to anyone (athlete or not) who needs help in putting together a plan to reach his/her goals.

  • I’ve been doing mental toughness from your book for a year now and I’ve achieved many big goals of mine from doing so! Including being World female kata champion in karate last weekend! So Thank YOU!!! You are awesome!!!

  • We booked Jason for multiple conferences. He was always our top rated speaker in the survey results. He provides a very motivational and insightful message with tangible takeaways for the audience.
