    Jordan Rogers: From Jail Cell to Nike Executive | Golf, Sobriety, and Family

    Jordan Rogers is one of the sharpest marketing minds working today, but his story didn’t start there.

That moment became the catalyst for getting sober and rebuilding his life one decision at a time. In this episode of Against the Grain, Jordan shares his journey through recovery, the lessons he’s learned along the way, and how golf has become a powerful complement to the work of staying sober. We also talk about marketing, purpose, and the role family plays in building a meaningful life. A conversation about second chances, discipline, and playing the long game.
