"You need this Magical work."

The roots of Jon Myers’ unfathomable story are based in family. Jon had an extraordinary beginning in Scranton, PA. Four grandparents, living back-to-back on Madison and Monroe Avenues. Two grandfathers, first-generation immigrants, one who became a doctor and the other a lawyer; and then two Jewish grandmothers, who lived over one hundred years each, feeding Jon true chicken soup. Parents, Morey, and Sondra, who imbued Jon with a sense of civil rights and caring for one’s children.

Then, unfathomably around 1996, an epic collision. The deep roots, in which Jon was raised, collided with the horror of our modern-day divorce system, in Massachusetts. Suddenly the values, with which Jon was raised were under attack, through uncaring tactics involving one’s life and children. It was a historical collision meant to occur. The deep roots of Jon’s past, his own life and work on behalf of youth and children, impelled Jon to stand in against, the savagery of our divorce system.

Anchored by his commitment to his own children, his commitment to fairness and civil rights; Jon would not be beaten down by nefarious tactics. Through this clash, the unfolded over twenty-five years, a few things happened. One is that the qualities Jon referenced as The World’s Best Mediator developed and were forged, through incredible personal growth. Two, Jon developed his company Calm Interventions Inc., the Science of Inner Strength, and other approaches to reform the basic callousness of our legal system and society. Third, Jon even developed an approach to the United States Supreme Court, relating to the Tort for the Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress, which Jon sees as ground-breaking work.
