Charlie "Rocket" Jabaley was managing Grammy-winning artists, including helping launch the career of 2 Chainz, and running one of Atlanta's most powerful hip-hop empires when his life quietly fell apart. Behind the success, he was battling depression, binge eating, and a brain tumor. Facing the possibility of death at over 300 pounds, he walked away from everything and decided to become an athlete. In 12 months, he lost 125 pounds, ran 5 marathons, completed an Ironman, and reversed the growth of his brain tumor. Nike put him in their iconic "Dream Crazy" Super Bowl campaign. Now he runs the Dream Machine Foundation, which has raised over $5 million making other people's wildest dreams come true. Charlie Rocket didn't just survive his story. He turned it into a movement.
