Meet Tony. He’s an account manager at a chemical manufacturer under constant pressure to hit quota, but lately something feels off. Some weeks he’s unstoppable. Other weeks he can barely open his laptop. The harder he tries to push through, the heavier everything feels. In this episode, Jay speaks with Johnny Crowder, mental health entrepreneur, TEDx speaker, and founder of CopeNotes. Together they explore why healing and personal growth rarely happen through a single breakthrough moment. More often, they happen through small shifts, repeated consistently over time.
