Taking his childhood nickname, “BAM,” and turning it into his speaking and consulting business, Jonathan has touched thousands of lives through his speaking engagements, mentoring programs, and Midweek Motivation videos. Jonathan realizes that he is the only person that can keep him from his greatness, and he continues to grow by not competing against others but competing against the person he was the day before.
Meet Jonathan “BAM” Rivers
Jonathan Rivers has never lived a conventional life. As a child, he was raised by a single mother who was in the military and taught him the values of hard work, character, and discipline. While Jonathan was an all-state athlete and high academic achiever, he has always been known for the passion and encouragement he instills in others on a daily basis.
His journey to becoming a motivational speaker, author, consultant, and mentor was formed by a state of rejection. After earning his BS in Marketing from Auburn University and his MBA from the University of Phoenix, Jonathan worked in corporate America for the majority of his young adult life. At the age of 30, Jonathan was laid off from his job. Even with his educational accomplishments, he applied for over 40 jobs and was told no each time! At that moment, he knew he wasn't being told no to any company, he was being told yes to his purpose! As a result, he has vowed to change the world through speaking and encouraging while dedicating his life to helping others realize their purpose.
