He Didn't Learn This
From a Podium
For more than twenty years, Jabari Sims worked where young people actually are: in classrooms from TK through 12th grade, on high school and youth sidelines, and running summer and after-school programs.
Then, inside six months, he lost his marriage, his home, and his job. He blamed everybody. Then he realized something that became the seed of the IT'S ME Protocol: if anything in his life was going to change, he was the only one who could change it.
He stopped blaming, stopped worrying about what the room thought, and went to work. That work shows up in every room he has led since. He is a father of five. As a personal trainer and group fitness instructor, he has helped thousands of people reach their health and fitness goals, leading spin and boot camp classes that push people to take charge of their health. He has led anger management groups at church and facilitated groups for people in recovery, working with them in group and one-on-one sessions and using his life coach certification to help them stay on their path.
Every one of those rooms confirmed what he learned the hard way: change starts when you can say, "It's me." Today he teaches that as the IT'S ME Protocol to students, athletes, and staff.
