Broadcaster
J Vanderbilt
Vanderbilt (CEO) is a faith-driven broadcaster, mental health advocate, and creator of the platform CEO: The Movement, which stands for Create. Evolve. Own. Under God’s Plan.
A natural communicator from a young age, Vanderbilt’s love for radio began in college when he worked as a music survey assistant. That experience sparked a lifelong passion for broadcasting and connecting with people through media. Although his career path took him through many different roles, his heart for radio never faded.
His professional journey took a pivotal turn while working as a videographer for 95.3 Jamz. During one recording session, a radio personality failed to show up — and Vanderbilt was unexpectedly asked to step in and fill the slot. That moment marked the true beginning of his on-air career. He later became the co-host of I’m Just Saying Live, where he further developed his voice, confidence, and impact as a broadcaster.
Several years later, after facing multiple health challenges and experiencing the devastating loss of both parents within a single year, Vanderbilt came to a life-altering realization: while he had always poured into others, his own mental health needed intentional care and attention. That season of grief, reflection, and healing became the foundation for something much bigger than a radio show.
Out of that journey, CEO: The Movement was born — a faith-centered mental health platform designed to create safe spaces for healing, growth, and purpose. Through radio, social media, and live conversations, Vanderbilt now uses his voice to address real-life mental health challenges, offer guidance rooted in faith, and remind people that healing is possible and purpose still exists.
The platform operates under one central principle: God gets all the praise and glory. Vanderbilt believes that nothing he builds, says, or leads is bigger than God — and that true impact comes from walking in alignment with God’s plan.
Through his morning show, digital presence, and community outreach, Vanderbilt continues to create spaces where people can heal, evolve, and fully own who God created them to be.
