Jevon Wooden is a business and mindset coach, speaker, author, and veteran of the US Army and the tech industry. He specializes in empowering motivated people to build the life of their dreams, professionally and personally. Wooden felt called to this line of work after navigating his fair share of adversity and emerging from it stronger, wiser, and committed to uplifting others.

Along the way, he took a few wrong turns. He was arrested at 17 years old and faced seven years in prison. This experience was a profound wake-up call that shifted everything for him: his perspective, values, and goals. During this time, he turned to his faith for guidance, and God answered his prayers. Wooden learned the power of taking inspired action, investing whole-heartedly in relationships, embracing his authentic self, and genuinely connecting with others from a place of understanding and transparency.

He has earned a master's degree in cybersecurity from Fordham University and an MBA from the Robert H. Smith School of Business at the University of Maryland. He credits his 12 years in the Army for the opportunities to develop his expertise in all aspects of IT and cybersecurity — from providing help desk support to designing information security architecture — under the highest possible stakes.

His career highlights include leading soldiers on two deployments to Kuwait, supporting strategic and tactical missions, being awarded a Bronze Star for heroic acts during his deployment to Afghanistan, and getting many clients to reach six figures and beyond using his 5Y Framework™.

These experiences taught him the importance of mindset when facing what seemed like impossible odds. They also showed him that you could do more with less, but not without a solid strategy and a commitment to maintaining good mental health.

Wooden is passionate about sharing his unique mix of mindset and business coaching to help business leaders and entrepreneurs do more and be more without losing themselves in the process.
