A bit about Jeff:
Dr Jeff Spencer has had a full life. At the age of 11, he made a commitment to join the 1972 Olympics Team as a cyclist. Against all odds, that dream became a reality. Later, after earning a master’s degree in sports science, Dr Spencer became a chiropractor. At the age of 43 after discovering that his genius father, who was last seen 30 years earlier, died homeless on the streets of NYC, Jeff resolved to spend the rest of his life showing others where they were on their path, what was coming next and the smoothest path forward to reach their bigger future & best legacy.
Today Dr Jeff Spencer is a Champion Maker with clients from Tiger Woods to U2, Bulletproof to Nike.
He teaches clients his road map experience – how to achieve your goals.
