“After just two sessions I was mind blown on how much positivity can change how you look at everyday problems. I used to get very upset over little things and wanted to just give up after things got hard but with this training I have learned to stay positive in every situation. I highly recommend his positivity training to others because it can help anyone and everyone!”

“Through some mix of his demeanor, gentle but targeted prodding and compelling course material, Jonas opens up a class of young people to speak with confidence and without fear of judgment, despite having just met one another. I cannot overstate how impressive this is. I’ve continually found Jonas Cain’s work to be consistently compelling."

“Jonas Cain was amazing! His delivery is such a creative and fun way to get strong and important messages through. The world needs more Jonas Cain's in it! He's the type of person you want to be around all the time. Positivity runs in his blood! We are managers of assisted living and memory care communities. We need positivity and laughter to be able to provide the highest quality of care to our residents. Jonas made us laugh, think and be in the moment.”

“Jonas spoke to my boys and girls track teams on the day before our league championship meet, and took the time to personalize and tailor a program to our specific needs about setting goals and finding a personal path toward success. Both teams won! This will be an annual staple for my teams!”

“Jonas gave us an hour-long keynote presentation. His presentation had the whole group laughing and learning about ourselves and one another. When we adjourned that evening, the group was better connected and more cooperative than it was when we opened. I recommend Jonas Cain without hesitation or reservation for any workshops, keynotes, and coaching sessions you may require. He is a tremendous asset to any team building exercise and you will be better having worked with him."

“Jonas Cain came to the Summer Summit for Driver Educators in Vermont and gave a customized motivational presentation that was just what I asked for giving time for driver educators to rethink what we do, get a fresh outlook on teaching, and start the school year running. Having Jonas inspire a fresh outlook and an open perspective was a segue for the rest of our conference. The evaluations told me it was one of the best conferences we have had! He left everyone a believer in how we can all improve as educators and people.”

“The beauty of his magic is that it is more than just that; it's a life lesson. I walked away from one of these shows both happy I got to see the magic, but also uplifted. A great person, a great showman, and a great life lesson taught that can apply to all.”

“The presentations were lively and engaging! So many of our students do not have access to communication at home and as a result, it is on us as a school to provide character education. This was an absolutely perfect way to do it! It is often difficult to find people who understand how to work with deaf people and use interpreters, are willing to work directly with the students and understand their challenges. I truly appreciate Jonas' willingness to work with a variety of people as well as taking the time beforehand (and afterwards!) to really understand his audience.”

“Jonas was the kick start to out Kindness Day at our elementary school. His charisma and welcoming demeanor grabbed the students' attention right away and kept it for the entire performance! Jonas' message of kindness and positivity was sprinkled throughout, effortlessly. The connections he made with magic and having good character are lessons that will last a lifetime. Both adults and students were amazed by Jonas' talent. Most importantly, Jonas loves what he does and that shines through from beginning to end!"

“I could not recommend him highly enough. He makes you think in a deeply introspective way. One of Jonas's great talents is that not only does he greatly entertain … but he also shares a story and makes you think long after the show is over.”

“Nearly moved me to tears! It was an emotional rollercoaster that left me with a different perspective on life and how to live it. Before the show, I had nearly given up on many of the life goals. After that night however I was shown that you can achieve just about anything if you stick to it. Jonas is a man I will not soon forget. He and his story is one I shared with just about everyone I know.”

“Jonas Cain made this course a memorable experience. Jonas provided thought-provoking discussion and powerful anecdotes that gave testimony to his methods of being happy and encouraging positivity in life. We cannot control everything that happens in our lives, only how we react to them. I have been attempting faithfully since then to practice that mindset and improve the outcomes of my situations. My time with Jonas was only a few hours, but the value of each hour was incredible.”

“I was not expecting it! My roommate and I have exams coming up this week and we were both really anxious going into it and after watching the show we kind of took a deep breath and we got more positivity out of it. The magic tricks got me, they for sure got me! But I really liked the reality aspect of it and that we got positivity out of it, and just it was great!”
