About Jonathan Fields

What if you saw chaos, disruption, and challenge as problems you GET to solve, innovation you GET to lead, and possibilities you GET to create? I call this being “wired for possibility™.” Over the years, this “lens” on the dance between uncertainty and possibility has helped me bring so much more richness into my life, and the lives of those I serve. I’ve become a dad, husband, award-winning author, executive producer, and host of one of the most-popular podcasts in the world, Good Life Project®, boasting more than 100-million listens and views. I’ve founded a series of companies focused on human potential, some launched under “impossible circumstances.” I currently serve as CEO of Spark Endeavors, where I developed the groundbreaking Sparketype® Assessment. Growing into a global phenomenon, this tool has been tapped by over 1-million individuals and some of the largest, most-innovative organizations to identify, embrace, and cultivate work that makes people come alive. The assessment has generated vast database of more than 50-million data-points, serving as one of the largest-ever studies on work-life fulfillment. Along the way, I’ve tapped this same wiring for possibility to write a series of award-winning and bestselling books. My latest, SPARKED: Discover Your Unique Imprint for Work That Makes You Come Alive, published by HarperCollins Leadership, is both a rally cry and a field guide to reclaiming work as a source of meaning, joy, and possibility. I write the popular Awake @ the Wheel newsletter on Substack, where I help a growing community feel more alive and less alone. I’ve also been incredibly blessed to see my work featured widely in the media, from Harvard Business Review, FastCompany, The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Inc, The Guardian, and SUCCESS to Oprah Magazine, Allure, Parade, Outside, Reader’s Digest, Vogue, Fitness, Elle, and many more. In-person or on the virtual stage as a keynote speaker and facilitator, I love “casting a spell of exquisite attention,” that draws participants in through real-world, relatable, and deeply-compelling stories, cutting-edge science, data-driven insights, and actionable take-aways. Deepening the impact of the media, tools, and engagements that have touched the lives of millions, I am grateful to serve as a trusted advisor, mentor, and coach to senior leaders, founders, change-makers, and a beautiful array of incredible humans exploring how to give and get the best out of life. This is the power of being wired for possibility.
