About Jason (JD)

Meet Jason Dale (JD), a dedicated career firefighter whose life took an unexpected turn when he was exposed to hazardous chemicals during a rescue operation. This life-altering event not only caused significant physical injuries but also shattered JD’s career and the life he had known.

As he faced the daunting task of rebuilding his identity, JD realized (with a lot of help) that he had become intimately familiar with the profound loss and struggle that accompany the erosion of one’s sense of self. Drawing from his personal journey of resilience and transformation, JD does not fancy himself as a voice of authority on the subject of loss of identity, but rather hopes that his own personal journey might strike a chord and help others. With deep empathy and a unique perspective, he is uniquely positioned to guide others who find themselves grappling with similar challenges.

Having experienced the devastating effects of losing a cherished career, JD understands the profound emotional impact, the search for meaning, and the arduous process of rediscovering one’s identity. Through his own struggles, he has acquired invaluable insights, developing effective strategies and tools to navigate the intricate path of rebuilding a fulfilling life after such a profound loss.

JD’s authenticity and credibility stem not only from his firsthand experience but also from his unwavering commitment to helping others on their own journeys of self-discovery.

Combining his lived experience, professional expertise, and deep empathy, JD has become a trusted mentor to many. People that have worked with JD come from a range of backgrounds and include elite coaches, sportspeople, CEO’s, lawyers, creatives, teenagers and children. He runs workshops and delivers various talks and keynote discussions throughout Australia.

JD is passionate about empowering people with techniques that enable them to re-engineer their lives inside and out, and give them guidance in their search for a new purpose, rebuild their lives and re-ignite their inner spark.
