** Early Life and Education**

Jason Savage Da Heathen, born and raised in the Bronx, New York, in the last quarter of the 20th century, is the CEO and Creator of How To Heathen, a social media company dedicated to educating the public on Norse Paganism, also known as Heathenry. Raised in Pelham Parkway, Savage has always had a deep connection to hip hop culture. He pursued his passion for the culinary arts by attending culinary school at SUNY Delhi, which led to a successful career in the restaurant industry in New York City and its surrounding areas.

** Personal Life**

Savage became a father to twin daughters in 2003 and a son in 2010. While completing his master’s degree in education, he suffered a life-altering motorcycle accident in 2011, which introduced him to painkillers and led to a struggle with addiction. His addiction intensified, culminating in the need for rehabilitation in 2016 at the Samaritan Village Daytop facility in Rhinebeck, New York.

** Journey into Norse Paganism**

During his rehabilitation, Savage was introduced to the spirituality of Norse Paganism, which marked the beginning of his spiritual path. Despite years of struggling to maintain sobriety, the loss of his mother to COVID-19 in early September 2020 caused a relapse in his addiction. However, he continued to fight his way back to sobriety and reinvigorated his commitment to Norse Paganism.

** Career and Influence**

By 2024, Savage had established himself as a prominent figure on social media platforms. Through How To Heathen, he seeks to inspire and assist others in improving their lives using the spiritual principles of Norse Paganism. His story of resilience and transformation serves as a powerful testament to the potential for personal growth and recovery through spirituality.
