From 14,000 Feet, I Saw What Phones Are Really Costing Us | Jason Dennen
What does it take to see how much we're losing to our screens?
For Jason Dennen, it took a near-fatal skydiving accident at 14,000 feet to understand the true cost.
But this isn't just another story about phones - it's about the raw courage it takes to face uncomfortable truths, the determination to push past what others say is possible, and the perseverance to rebuild everything when life crashes around you.
Through his remarkable journey of recovery and transformation, Jason reveals how facing death gave him a crystal-clear view of what matters.
He shares powerful insights about the difference between motivation (which fades) and discipline (which prevails), why real courage means being terrified and moving forward anyway, and how belief in yourself trumps any doctor's prediction.
Whether you're feeling disconnected, facing your own challenges, or simply sensing there's more to life than what's on your screen, Jason's perspective-shifting story offers a wake-up call about reclaiming what matters most.

"Eight Days till Sunrise"
Jason Dennen
Author/Inspirational Speaker
Jason Dennen is a Christian, author, inspirational speaker, skydiver, mountain climber, triathlete and explorer. He describes himself on most days as just a normal everyday guy. He was born and raised in New Jersey and moved to Colorado to explore and test his limits in the wide-open spaces of the west. He was in a skydiving accident that almost took his life. The doctor who performed emergency lifesaving surgery on him stared at his comatose body the day after the surgery in utter disbelief. The doctor told his family that he couldn’t believe he survived all of the traumatic injuries that he had incurred during the accident. He said that no one survives what Jason just survived. No one. Jason woke up from a coma that lasted 8 days and required him to undergo multiple surgeries to repair 4 organs and 20 broken bones. His badly broken body required him to stay in the hospital for 3 and a half months, undergo 11 months of rehabilitation and relearn to walk. After being told by his doctor he may never be able to run again, he decided to sign up for a triathlon to test the doctor’s prognosis. Less than 1 year after the accident he completed a triathlon and proved the doctor wrong. The long journey to recovery from the accident allowed him time to reassess the direction of his life and answer the question why was his life spared. This second chance at life revealed to him a new life purpose. He promised himself that he would share his story and what he learned to help others that are going through difficult hardships in their own lives.
