Summary

This pastor has been to hell and back. After facing a public divorce, watching his brother go away to prison, and burying eight friends and family members, Cody found a way to keep giving. But he felt like he was living a lie and chasing credentials. To make matters worse, he found himself in a hospital bed, septic, and in complete adrenal/hormonal shutdown due to stress and anxiety. Cody said, “While I loved my season of occupational ministry, it became clear that I was sacrificing my soul on the altar of my success.” Hear this pit-to-peak story, as a man seemingly on his deathbed is now helping 7-10 figure founders to continue calling without “sacrificing their souls on the altar of their success.”  

Cody Jefferson is, first and foremost, the dad of Stetson Foster. He’s his son’s wrestling coach, homeroom dad, greatest influence and biggest supporter. He is also a successful entrepreneur, public speaker, life and business coach. He is the founder of Embrace The Lion, the Top Ranked coaching program for Kingdom-minded men in business looking to LIVE their legacy in life and business. Cody coaches and advises CEO’s, business owners, and entrepreneurs on scaling their business, growing their impact and influence, all without sacrificing their soul on the altar of their success. He is an investor, a contributing writer for Forbes, Entrepreneur, Rolling Stone and travels the country as an in-demand keynote speaker on the subjects of personal empowerment, spiritual fulfillment, overcoming adversity and living a life of success in all areas. www.codyjefferson.com
