Hi there!
It's nice to meet you.
Thank you for taking your time time to learn more about me.
My name is Jeff Wexler. I am a student and observer of life. I am on a mission connect myself and others to our unique Truth.
Storytelling, facilitated experiences, and witnessing are the bridges I use to support us in returning Home.
Here's a story of how I found my passion for connection...
I graduated from the University of Maryland in 2020 with a Communications degree and a love for mascoting. Post-college, I was determined to become a professional mascot in the NBA.
Yes, you read that correctly. I wanted to be the guy in the hot, sweaty suit that jumps around at sporting events. For me, mascoting is more than just hyping up a crowd. The magic of mascoting lies in the small, intimate moments with fans. In the mascot suit, a 3-second interaction invites a person to step outside of the stressors of life, and for a moment, feel seen and understood.
My mascoting dreams came to an abrupt halt in the spring of 2020 as COVID-19 spread throughout the world. I was forced to take a step back from mascoting and ask myself the tough question of, 'Who am I without mascoting?'
Through this inner exploration, I found the beautiful art of storytelling.
Storytelling has the same magical effect as mascoting - they are facilitators of connection, a vehicle for us to witness ourselves and others.
With witnessing comes compassion. And with compassion comes unity.
I am dedicating this chapter of my life to creating spaces for people to witness themselves and other in authentic expression.
This is my legacy of love. A ripple through humankind that has the potential to carry on through generations.
With love.
Jeff
