Few people have redefined success quite like Jeffrey Walker, first as a trailblazer in private equity and now as a force for global good. From pioneering modern investment strategies to championing philanthropic initiatives, he has spent his life shaping industries and uplifting communities. A former leader at J.P. Morgan Partners, Jeffrey transitioned from a high-powered finance career to dedicating his life to driving meaningful change.

With over 30 years in philanthropy and social change, Jeffrey has led and supported numerous initiatives focused on impact and innovation. He is the co-author of The Generosity Network, Chair of New Profit, Founder of BridgeBuilders, and serves on the boards of Just Capital, Giving Tuesday, and the African Philanthropy Forum. Previously, he was CEO and Co-Founder of CCMP Capital and Vice Chairman of JPMorgan Chase & Co., where he helped shape the future of private equity and global investment.

In this episode, I sit down with Jeffrey to explore his incredible journey. We discuss his podcast, System Catalyst, the power of meditation and mindfulness, and how he continues to build impactful relationships that drive systemic change. Jeffrey's story is a testament to the idea that life isn’t about slowing down, it’s about expanding, growing, and giving back.
