I’m AJ Jones. Twice, a massive widowmaker heart attack nearly ended my life. Twice, I walked away with more than just a second chance. And twice I had to rethink everything. After a 20+ year career with firms like Schwab, BlackRock, and Wells Fargo, my cardiologist told me to retire. Instead, I doubled down on a new mission: to help people stop living on autopilot and start redefining what’s possible. Or put another way, with all due respect to my cardiologist I have unfinished business.
Code 3: Life. Reinvented. is not another career podcast. It’s a wake-up call. Each episode is real and urgent. Hear conversations with bold pivoters who left comfort and “success” behind to pursue something meaningful, and with authors and experts who study transformation. We’ll emphasize bringing their stories and techniques into your reality.
And you’ll hear from me: unfiltered lessons, radical honesty, and a playbook for reinventing your life before it breaks you.
If you’re a high-achieving professional who knows something has to change, this is your siren. Don’t wait for a crisis to force reinvention. This is your Code 3.

Episode 10: Being vs. Doing: A High Achiever’s Awakening with Steve Haggerty
In this powerful and deeply human episode, I sit down with Steve Haggerty — former Hyatt executive, private-equity partner, and now a builder of transformational wellness retreats — to explore one of the biggest truths high achievers avoid: we spend our lives doing while barely learning how to be.
Steve opens up about walking away from the corporate mountaintop, the unseen emotional patterns that shaped his success, and the inner work that finally caught up with him. We talk about embodiment vs. intellect, the traps of achievement, the courage it takes to stop numbing, and why true transformation starts with radical self-honesty.
He shares his journey into functional medicine, spirituality, journaling, and deep personal reflection — plus the incredible story of how a 40-day road trip and a chance encounter led him to build transformational resorts in Shenandoah and Costa Rica.
This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt the quiet pull toward something deeper — a shift from performance to presence, from autopilot to awareness, from doing to being.
If you’ve ever wondered why the outer success still doesn’t touch the inner ache, Steve’s wisdom will hit you right where you live.
