October’s Writer Spotlight Featuring Jamar Root
Oct, 2025
Getting to see my book for the first time was magical! ~ Jamar Root | Youth Motivational Speaker on Instagram
At Hill Print Solutions we believe in celebrating voices that inspire, and this month we’re honored to shine the spotlight on Jamar Root—a youth motivational speaker, cancer survivor, and author whose story has resonated with thousands of young people across the country.
A Journey of Purpose
Jamar’s journey began in a place of unexpected challenge. After his freshman year of college, he was diagnosed with leukemia—an experience that would pivot his life in a direction of purpose and leadership. Rather than allow his diagnosis to define limitation, Jamar embraced it as a catalyst for clarity: he realized the importance of living intentionally and passionately.
He started speaking professionally at the age of nineteen, determined to reach young people with a message of hope, authenticity, and actionable growth. From workshops and virtual programs to keynote speeches across middle schools, high schools and colleges, his work centers on encouraging youth to find their passion, own their story, and use it as a launching pad.
Why We Chose Him
-
Relatable authenticity – Jamar doesn’t deliver polished, distant motivational lines. He speaks from lived experience—from athletics and competition to fear, illness, and personal reinvention. TEEN TRUTH+1
-
Youth-centric voice – As someone still young himself, Jamar connects with high school and college audiences in a way that feels genuine and current. TEEN TRUTH+1
-
Mission-driven content – His work isn’t just “feel good”; he offers tools for leadership, self-discovery, goal‐setting and resilience. Jamar Root+1
