Growing up with Tourette Syndrome taught me a few things about managing my mental health. Since May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and May 15-June 15 is Tourette Syndrome Awareness Month, I have decided to do a four-part video series about how to increase your resilience.
Years ago, when I began speaking on growing up and living with Tourette Syndrome, I quickly learned that many people in my audiences were dealing with “overwhelming” challenges of their own. By sharing my struggles, it helped me overcome my feelings of embarrassment (from the tics I suffered from) and gave me a connection with everyone in the room that had never been there before.
Due to the situations that Covid has created for many people - quarantine, loneliness, depression, inability to work, anxiety, and more - it has become clear to me that mental health issues need to be normalized. No one should ever feel shame for struggling with a mental health issue.
I honestly believe that we just need to talk about it more. It needs to be out there for the world to see. Those of us who deal with mental health issues need to plant both of our feet firmly in the ground, plant our flag, and proudly take a stand for who we are. Only when more of us make it a part of everyday conversation will the stigma begin to vanish.
So here you go. This is me talking about living with Tourette Syndrome and sharing some of the tools that I learned on how to increase your/my resilience. God bless you.

On today’s “3 Minutes on Resilience” I discuss how developing gratitude can help increase your resilience with special guest Peter Margaritis. Take 3 minutes and learn how taking pleasure in life, feeling successful for goals met, and being happy for others can help you feel good about your own life.
The Accidental Accountant, Peter Margaritis, was my special guest on Episode Nine of Jason Michaels TV. Peter is a professional speaker, improv virtuoso, podcaster, author, and all-around nice guy. We discussed how he uses improv to teach leadership to organizations and people. It was a fun conversation with some fascinating insights.
Today’s video clip is from Episode Seven of Jason Michaels TV and it is a discussion on developing grit in order to become more resilient. The three elements that I share that help build grit are being active, determination, and vitality.
Talking to Decision Performance Specialist and Keynote Speaker Steve Haffner was fascinating. We had an insightful discussion on how to make smarter, better, more informed decisions in life and during this COVID-19 pandemic.
Steve also shared an amazing demonstration with two boxes where one box fit inside the other, until the other box fit inside the first. You’ve got to see it to believe it (at 43:28 on the video.)
In my "3 Minutes on Resilience" segment (43:50) we explored the idea of developing grit and how to get “gritty.” And finally, I debuted a brand new magic performance video! (58:15)
It was great fun to visit with my friend Nathan Coe Marsh on Episode Six of Jason Michaels TV. We learned how he fell in love with entertaining audiences, chatted philosophically about being an artist and an entertainer, heard some fun stories from his time on the road, and even saw some magic! I really enjoyed his thoughts on how he works with his clients to craft unique experiences for his audiences.
I also thought it was so cool of Nathan to provide access to us to watch his full show direct from the Magic Castle. If you would like to see him work for a live audience in an exclusive Hollywood members-only club, click here watch the video.

In this clip, from Episode Two of Jason Michaels TV, I share a story about how one of my mentors inspired me to face my fears, be brave, and become a better artist and entertainer. My special guest Grace Good shares how she had to face her fears in order to have incredible adventures like tours in Japan and across the United States.
I feel that this discussion on being brave is important and timely. I hope you will watch it, enjoy it, and that it will speak to you.
Episode Five of Jason Michaels TV was, in my opinion, outstanding! I tried out a new video streaming software and really enjoyed using it. The technical execution on my side of things wasn’t perfect, but I think that episode five is the best so far from a production point of view.
Having one of my best friends, Stephen Bargatze, as my guest was special. We discuss all sorts of topics. We start talking about our travels together entertaining the men and women of the military deployed to overseas bases. After that, we chat a little bit about his style of comedy and magic and we watch a few of his performance clips. We also go into his personal story of triumph over tragedy and how his faith his influenced his life.
Discussing the power of imagination is one of my favorite things to do. As I say in the video, I believe that imagining something in your life is the first step in the act of creating it.
My question to you is, “What do you want to create in your life?” When you picture yourself living that reality in your imagination, you prepare your mind and body to realize it.
