Jason Vitug Financial Wellness Expert and Speaker
“I’m not a guru or the person who’ll save you. You are the hero of your story, and I am but a guide to help you on your journey.”
Jason is the founder of the financial wellness platform phroogal.com, creator of the Plutus award-winning project the Road to Financial Wellness, and promoter of The Smile Lifestyle, a philosophy on purposeful and experiential living through sound financial decision-making.
Jason “was a high-achieving financial mess” and reached financial security. Instead of accepting a role as CEO, he left his successful corporate career to pursue a more fulfilling life. That decision led him on a backpacking journey around the world to discover the true meaning of happiness and success. Along the way, he had some hilarious misadventures, including becoming a national face of a tsunami panic in Southeast Asia and accidentally becoming royalty.
But more than just a storyteller, Jason also advocates for financial wellness and empowers people to live their best lives. He believes everyone deserves a happy life, regardless of their income or background.
Whether you’re struggling with debt, looking to invest in your future, starting out, or headed to retirement, Jason’s wisdom and guidance will help you navigate the road ahead with confidence and optimism.
Through his work, he has helped countless people achieve financial freedom, break free from the rat race, and find their true calling in life.

What is Financial Wellness?
Financial wellness is about your health and wealth. It’s about the overall quality of the life you’re living. It takes into account how you manage money and think and feel about your life situation.
In the book, You Only Live Once, Jason wrote:
“I wanted people to understand that financial success-however you choose to define that success only matters if you’ve found a balance between money and life. I used the term financial wellness to describe the state of living in which your well-being is measured by the quality of your life, not just by wealth.”
Your health matters, so, therefore, financial wellness matters.
Financial wellness is actively pursued through knowledge, planning, and goal setting.
When you can manage your money and feel better about your finances, you’ll gain a sense of security and peace of mind supporting physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
The focus is to achieve financial well-being – a healthy living state where you experience less money-related stress: your outlook on money is positive. And your life satisfaction is high. A state of being where you feel well about where you are and where you are headed.
