I’m your host Stephanie Kathan, and it is my intention with this series to offer you a practical path to a magical life, and help you to tune in to your own power of feeling on purpose through mindgrowing conversations.

When I was putting the guest list together for this series, it was really important for me to choose people who had touched my life in some way, and each of my guests have done that on a deep level.

Jeff Rivera has done that for me time and time again.

His constant encouragement and support over the last several years, has inspired and empowered me to be the best version of myself while traveling the road of self discovery, and trying to figure out what it really means to be “Successful”.

Through the years, Jeff showed me that I can create a life around talking with interesting people, and he’s helped me build the confidence necessary to have mindgrowing conversations with the people I really want to talk to.

But above ALL,  Jeff is a living example of how “Feeling On Purpose” creates positive change in our lives.

Jeff Rivera is an author and inspirational media personality. He has appeared on national television, radio and print in such outlets as Forbes.com, The Boston Globe, Publishers Weekly, Right On! Magazine, Rotarian Magazine, TMZ, WABC, WNBC, WCBS, SITV, American Latino and NPR.

He also writes or has written for Entertainment Weekly, Mediabistro, GalleyCat, Publishing Perspectives, Digital Book World, Examiner, American Chronicle, School Library Journal and the Huffington Post and has been invited to speak and inspire groups all over the world from South Carolina to Nigeria. He has been on panel discussions for The Library Journal, Authors Guild, the Harlem Book Fair and many others.

His humble beginnings of living in American poverty on welfare and food stamps as the child of a single mother, to his days living in his car and final rise to becoming a published author, journalist and media personality have inspired many.

Rivera created a massive online following before the eBook revolution even existed. He was able to land an agent and a book deal with Warner Books (now known as Grand Central Publishing) within 7 days. He has used the knowledge he gained from this experience to help coach his clients on social media campaigns and has helped over 100 clients take the first step in landing an agent too.

During our mindgrowing conversation, Jeff shares how #FeelingOnPurpose has played a part in the life he has created.
