From Life’s Lows to Leading Memphis Forward: Jevonte Porter’s Story of Resilience
?? Summer Owens
I empower youth, young adults, and those who support them to become more confident and resilient leaders of teams and their own lives.
Jevonte Porter’s story is a true testament to the S.O. What! Success System—he didn’t let his circumstances define him. Instead, he used Overcoming Obstacles, Eliminating Excuses, and Calculating Choices to transform his life and inspire others to do the same.
Growing up in Memphis with a teen mother and no father figure, Jevonte could have easily become another statistic. But his mother’s powerful message of self-worth and perseverance fueled him to push past every obstacle. He went from valedictorian of his high school to stepping into leadership roles at Memphis Allies, proving that success isn’t about where you start—it’s about how you rise.
But Jevonte’s journey isn’t just about personal success. Now, he’s paying it forward. Through his work, he’s helping young people break generational cycles, embrace their potential, and build a future they never thought possible.
