Fan Favorite: Jay Glazer on Turning Anxiety Into a Superpower

If you’ve been watching Jay on camera over the years, you might find it hard to believe that, under the surface, he lives with an almost daily struggle with anxiety and depression. But he doesn’t let it keep him down or stop him dead in his tracks - instead he uses it as fuel for his relentless drive and motivation. In today’s interview, we go deep on the importance of loyalty, being of service, and the importance of learning to build yourself up from the inside out, rather than looking for validation only from the outside. If you’ve ever struggled with anxiety and depression and felt like you had to “fake it” to get through the day, this one’s for you.
