"Hi, I'm Darin Harris, CEO of Jack in the Box. I've been a member of CEO Life since it started, basically at the inception. In early April, late or May, and really, John appealed to me because you know, for me, being new to San Diego is how do I connect with others? How do I give back to the community, and for me, that was you know enough just that alone. But then I got to know John and realized the passion he had for really bringing this to life and engaging other people, and finding a way that we can connect in the community and connect with others and build that relationship, so that's why I'm here, yeah, someone's considering that we're at the founding stage, but it's all about how we connect with others and build relationships, and I think that's that in and of itself will lead to things, whether it's important to you to build business relationships or personal relationships, I think you can find it in a network like this."

"Trey is fantastic. John and Josh created it. I have made the best friends and even more than that, too. If you’re a CEO, and you feel like you're on an island by yourself, this is where you don't anymore, and it helps your brand, helps build your business. Connections, collaborations. Everything you can think of. So, don't not join CEO Life."

"Hey, what's going on, everybody? My name is Brian D. Davis. I have a business called Bolter Solutions, and we work on information technology engineering and cybersecurity solutions for the government contractor. I've been a CEO Life since October 2023, and the reason why I like it is that we get a chance to all come together and discuss business ideas. We get a chance to go over philanthropy and different ways to all help each other grow, build, and scale. With all that stuff being said, man, just take the time and get a chance to get to know everyone that's around here because we are all around here to help each other and get things going, so the primary benefit of joining the CEO life is to get in here and actually make a difference, getting to know people, and knowing that you have to think of something bigger than yourself if you really care about people and you care about making something expand in the futures then go head and join CEO Life because it's all about making sure that things grow and the people here are going to make sure that it."

"I'm probably one of the newest members, just came in this past Thursday when I heard about CEO life and what they're doing and how they’re bringing like-minded people with each other that are in the same place that I am. helping solve problems, accelerate. It was just something I thought that was a no-brainer for me. Tonight is my first event, and it’s been amazing. I couldn't be more excited about what the future holds and what it's going to look like with CEO Life, and it’s going to be a great time. If you’re considering it, absolutely join CEO Life!"

"I’m Faron Daugs, I’m a Financial Advisor. So, I just started out here in Nashville about 3 years ago. I’ve been seeking out something like CEO Life for so long, since I’ve been in the business about 30 years ago. I needed a new environment and community that I could connect with that has the energy and focus. People that are like-minded, that want the group to excel, like I want to excel. So, I am proud and happy to be a part of CEO Life."

"It’s been amazing. We’re gathering here with about 60 leaders today for our launch event. We’re steadily growing day over day with introductions, with referrals, with the market that we’re going. So many leaders coming together, wanting to engage with one another, build relationships, and grow together. And that’s the value, and what I love to do here in Nashville. Build that community of like-minded individuals."

"Hi, I’m Melissa Hausner, and I’m from Los Angeles. I joined CEO Life about a month and a half ago. I’m at this beautiful event in San Diego, and I couldn’t be happier. I’ve met so many people worth networking with and can’t wait to see what comes over. My business is new higher, it’s higher, and digital dress code, and I’m a startup, and this has been an amazing experience. I’ve gotten to meet so many people. If you’re looking to get into a group where you can find like-minded individuals that really are on the same mission and path as you, and also mentors that can help you get there, this is the place to be."

"Hey, my name is Justin Ukraine. I’m a managing partner of Ceiba Capital. We’re a Private Equity Firm based in La Jolla and New York. I joined this group in 2023 few months ago, and I really enjoyed it. One of the things I like is helped me get out of my typical social network. I’ve met a bunch of new people that I otherwise wouldn’t have met. So it’s been great, and I’m looking forward to seeing what 2024 and beyond bring. Yeah, and if you’re thinking about joining, I think you know the one thing that I thought about and that you should give consideration to is that this is not a professional business event, event, or group, it’s really socially focused first and foremost, and obviously, business can happen from that, but you know is it we don’t want to do sort of awkward networking until feeling like get a pass out cards and everyone has an agenda. That is not the sort of thing that I think the DNA of this group is, and so, I think that’s something that you’re looking for. You’re missing in your everyday life. And this might be something for you to think about. "

"My name is Eliza Chobanyan and I’m with Next Care Hospice. I’ve been with CEO Life, from the get-go. Since they were signing up people from the beginning and it’s been wonderful. Interestingly enough I just met somebody from my line of work too, so we’re going to do business together which is great but I would also say mainly the networking has been amazing, you know talking to people from other lines of work, so to kind of discussing collaborations and kind of how they do things and really just talking to people. I think we’ve kind of been stuck, my cousin and I are here kind of stuck in our own line of work so it’s really nice to have the opportunity to go out and meet people. There is somebody who was thinking about joining. I just brought them along to show them so that’s one of the things but I definitely would say join. I think there’s so much value to start with, but as the company gets larger and larger there’s going to be tremendous value in here with these types of people around, so I think it’s been really really great for me personally. It seems like they’re allowing guests to come in for a certain event so honestly I would bring them in for them to see it for themselves. It’s really been amazing. Good conversations, good people, a lot of CEOs. I haven’t met as many in any of my lines of work than I have at these events that I go to, so it’s amazing. I think we’re going to be growing our company because of a connection we made here, so I’m excited."
