From private equity boardrooms to sacred mountain summits. Jackson Strong has walked both worlds and refused to choose between them.
He spent his first decade in private equity and enterprise software, inside companies valued north of $300 million: a buttoned-up executive in the boardroom, a closet mystic everywhere else. In 2016 the two worlds collided. A nervous breakdown, a divorce, the end of a life built to be admired. He walked away and became a coach to purpose-driven entrepreneurs.
More than a decade since, he has helped tantra teachers, trauma-informed coaches, plant-medicine guides, and visionary leaders turn their gifts into thriving businesses. In July 2022 he founded AUREA for the road he had to walk alone: a community and a coaching system for the gifted. He is here to shortcut it, so you can find your gift, give it a voice the world can feel, and build it beside people you trust.
