Jason Blyth isn’t your typical speaker—he’s the torchbearer.
A former international athlete, he won multiple national titles, international medals, and placed top-10 at the Junior World Championships. As a musician he’s featured on a track with Ludacris and recorded with world-renowned producers behind Linkin Park, Macy Gray, and Snoop Dogg—and that was just the warm-up.
Born to a brain-injured woman after a sexual assault, Jason had his first psychology appointment at two when his mum tried to kill him. He left home at fifteen, quit school at sixteen, and built a life off one repeating choice: take back the pen and write a different ending to your story. His message is sharp and simple—pain isn’t here to break you; it creates who you could become. Now at thirty-something, he’s lived more lives than most cats.
Jason knows how to claw your way out of hell—just don’t tell the devil he stole the map!
We can’t change our past, but we can decide our future.
Jason Blyth is more than a speaker. He is a survivor, a youth advocate, and a guide who shows audiences that while we cannot change our past, we can decide our future.
Jason Blyth’s story is one of survival, resilience, and transformation. Raised in abuse and failed by the very institutions meant to protect him, Jason spent thirteen years in the family health and psychology system, seeing almost twenty clinicians who labelled him a “problem child” but never asked why. At nine he demanded answers, at eleven he begged to be removed from home, yet nothing changed. By fifteen he left home traumatised, carrying pain that led to years of self-destruction. He’d become the product of his environment.
In 2022, after a four-year fight, Jason won a Historic Abuse Claim against the New Zealand government, who admitted their failure and issued him an apology.
Today, Jason is a youth advocate and a voice for those who’ve been silenced, using his story and his hard-won wisdom to ensure no child is ever forgotten again.
