Mick Unplugged · Why Adversity Can Be a Gift: Jordan Mendoza Breaks It Down · 12 Jan 2026 podcast

Hey, what's going on, Mick?

First off, I would say you are too kind with the introduction.

You make me sound way more cool than I am.

And then one little caveat.

My mom was the one that was born with one lung, but I did get to learn from her level of adversity.

And we'll get into the book and to the story of how watching her overcome such things helped me later understand really after her passing that I had went through a couple of things myself growing up.

Yeah.

So, well, first off, you know, I was voted least likely to succeed in high school.

So, yeah.

I think part of that was, you know, feel to the fire.

I get negatively motivated.

And, and, and so usually when people say I'm going to be something that I don't think I might turn out, then it gets me fired up.

So this was one of those things where in, in 2022, I did a co-collaboration project and I did it because of, you know, some of those people that say, Hey, you're not going to be anything when you grow up, you're not going to amount to anything.

And

Then you get opportunities further in life.

And it presented it to me where I could collaborate with 10 other authors.

We could each have a chapter.

And let's see if I've got it in me.

Let's see if there's enough stories.

And once I was able to execute on that project, it was called Brand Sharks.
