FROM STRUGGLE TO SUCCESS

As a young person, Jeremy Anderson faced what felt like the perfect storm: he grew up without his biological father, was diagnosed with ADHD, struggled with drug and alcohol abuse, and bounced between three different schools in 9th grade before finally catching up and graduating on time.

Leaning on the NEXT LEVEL principles he now teaches, he went on to earn both his Bachelor's and Master's degrees, build several successful businesses, author seven books, and partner with top curriculum experts to create SEL and character-building resources for students, teachers, and parents.

Today, he's known as one of the premier educational motivational speakers in the world, famous for his raw, real talk and practical strategies that transform school culture.

WHAT MATTERS MOST

FAMILY AND VALUES

Jeremy has traveled the world and found success as an author, educational consultant, and motivational speaker, but what he's most proud of is his family. He and his wife, Traci, live in Atlanta, Georgia, with their daughter Jewel and son Jaxon.

Married for 16 years, they made a major life shift in 2012 when they walked away from two thriving careers to pursue their shared calling—impacting the lives of students and educators full-time. Those early years were tough, especially with a newborn at home, but the sacrifice paid off.

At the end of the day, Jeremy's biggest flex isn't being a great speaker—it's being a present husband and father.

GIVING BACK

NEXT LEVEL LIVING, INC.

In 2018, Jeremy and Traci launched their nonprofit, Next Level Living, Inc. Since then, they've fed an average of 1,000 starving children every week in Cape Town, South Africa—nourishing not only their bellies but their hearts and minds.

Making an impact

Believing deeply in the power of education, the Andersons have also sponsored 60 students to attend the College of Cape Town since 2020. They live by the conviction that they are "blessed to be a blessing," and their generosity continues to open doors and change lives around the world.
