Biography

Charlie “Rocket” Jabaley was managing one of the biggest music management companies in the world when he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Millions of people in this world feel hopeless, stuck, or at rock bottom.

Charlie Rocket was diagnosed with a brain tumor that almost killed him. For others, it’s when they are facing homelessness, battling cancer, or experiencing depression. In these moments, people lose sight of a vision for a better future. All they know is their struggle. Charlie discovered that a dream can change everything.

Facing death and weighing over 300 pounds, he made the choice to return to his childhood dream of being an athlete. He ended up losing 125 lbs, running 5 marathons, completing an ironman, and best of all, reversing his brain tumor.

To top it off, he was even featured in Nike’s biggest Super Bowl commercial of all time called “Dream Crazy”, the Colin Kaepernick commercial. Charlie has now dedicated his entire life to making other people’s dreams come true through his non-profit the Dream Machine Foundation.

He wants to become a new type of millionaire: the one that makes a million dreams come true. Since 2018, the Dream Machine Foundation has been able to get homeless people off the streets, help children with disabilities launch their dream business, help tornado victims rebuild their homes, and much more.
