Jason Garner, former CEO of the Global Concert Division for Live Nation, was twice listed on Forbes Highest Paid Executives Under 40 list. Jason has lived at two extremes - as a corporate executive who hung out with Rock stars and managed at least half of the world's live music, then, after his mother died of cancer, he left Live Nation and journeyed the globe to study with healers, philosophers, and spiritual masters who challenged all he held dear. Raised by a single mom, he started working on weekends at a flea market and went to owning his own concert company and then all the way to becoming an executive at a Fortune 500 company. Twice married, twice divorced, raising two children largely on his own, partied with rock stars and sports legends, and made a small fortune until a series of events around the sudden death of his mother brought his life to a halt and his ego to its knees. Through the hard lessons Jason has learned that we can be enlightened from wherever we sit, whether that's an office or an ashram. Listen in as Sam and Jason talk about how spirituality is alive in business and business is alive in spirituality, how we are not alone and how we have been perfectly placed at this moment to experience a wondrous life together (Originally Recorded October 3, 2014) Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-conscious-consultant-hour8505/donations
