S1:Episode 3 / Choosing Your Family with Jason Virts

In this episode of The Laura Neuman Show, my guest is Jason Virts, one of the strongest people I’ve ever met. Join us on Jason’s journey through unthinkable hardship to becoming valedictorian of his senior class. His birth father tried to sell him at birth, which led to his maternal grandfather adopting him while in his sixties. Jason remained close to his siblings and birth parents but was raised by his grandparents - whom he calls mom and dad. At ten years old, Jason lost his birth mother to a horrific act of violence—and his birth father kidnapped one of his sisters, triggering a nationwide manhunt. Jason has worked since the age of 14, and is now paying his own way through college. This summer, he’s interning at the Space Telescope Science Institute, turning tragedy into trajectory. Jason is living proof that resilience isn’t just something you’re born with—it’s something you build. You won’t want to miss this conversation with a truly extraordinary leader in the Gen Z generation! #FirstGenCollegStudent #Resilience #MentalStrength #OvercomingAdversity #STEMstudents
