About Jackson Reid

Jackson Reid is living proof that what the enemy meant for destruction, God can use for destiny.

Raised in a home of violence and emotional abuse, Jackson was told repeatedly he would “never amount to anything.” Beaten, blamed, and unwanted, he learned survival early.

At 15, he defended his mother from his father from a violent beating and vowed never to become the man who hurt her.

Jackson went on to earn college degrees on his own, became an Electronics Engineer, and later answered a calling to serve in the Army as an Army Ranger. In 1991, during a night-time combat jump in Iraq, his parachute collapsed approximately 100 feet above ground, sending him into free fall and beginning a lifetime of pain, surgeries, and recovery.

After a medical discharge from the Army, Jackson went back to college and earned 5 more degrees.

Later, Jackson was wrongfully charged and convicted, spending 5 years, 3 months, and 3 days in an Alabama prison, where he witnessed unspeakable abuse and corruption by both the guards and inmates — all while having 14 surgeries and having his wheelchair taken from him.

He survived.
He endured.
He was restored.

Today, Jackson leads Unbreakable Nation, speaks nationwide, and helps others transform pain into purpose through faith.

Unbreakable Nation changed my life.
