Jimmy Yeary

Jimmy Yeary is a hit songwriter, speaker, and storyteller whose life’s work is built on one simple but powerful idea: connection changes everything.

A Nashville-based songwriter with multiple #1 hits—including the CMA and ACM Song of the Year, “I Drive Your Truck”—Jimmy has spent decades learning what moves people, what resonates, and what brings us together. His songs have been recorded by some of the biggest names in country music, not because of clever lyrics alone, but because they tell stories people feel.

But Jimmy’s greatest impact extends far beyond music.

From stages across the country to boardrooms and organizations, he teaches individuals and leaders how to connect on a deeper level—through vulnerability, emotional awareness, and authentic storytelling. His ability to turn everyday moments into powerful, relatable experiences has influenced millions, helping people see themselves—and each other—more clearly.

Raised in a small Ohio town and shaped by real-life struggles, family, and faith, Jimmy doesn’t just teach connection—he lives it. Whether he’s writing a song, speaking to a crowd, or having a one-on-one conversation, his goal is the same: to create a moment where someone feels seen, understood, and not alone.

Because to Jimmy, connection isn’t a strategy.

It’s a way of life.
