Jordan Gross refers to himself as a ‘multipotentialite’, a word you will not find in the dictionary, yet it means a person who aspires to be many things. Most people aim for a profession in their lives even if they eventually change careers, but few start out stating they want to be more than one and Jordan is one of those people. By the age of 24, he has written a book, drafted a novel, delivered a TEDx talk, started several organizations, worked in the corporate world and is in the midst of being on 90 podcasts in 90 days. Jordan is a trailblazer for positive change, optimism and the belief that our daily actions can help us all overcome stress and anxiety.
