JT hopes that through his life experiences and other people’s stories, the reader is reminded there truly are no bad days and to never give up. Author. Speaker. Adventure Enthusiast. “I want to share my story so people who feel alone and discouraged might feel will, well, less alone and more confident.” – JT By the time JT Jester was three years old, he had spent 250 days in the hospital, and he endured sixteen major surgeries before he was sixteen. Diagnosed with VATER Syndrome, a rare combination of several birth defects. JT’s life was anything but easy. On top of his physical challenges, he suffered dyslexia and short-term memory loss, which made learning nearly impossible for him. Yet JT pushed past his physical and educational roadblocks to achieving what many people told him he would never do—learn to read, graduate from high school, attend college, and become a successful motivational speaker, influential podcast host, and bestselling author.
