EP201: How to Keep Going When Life Falls Apart (Jake Bailey)
04 Jun 2025
In this episode, Jake Bailey joins us for a raw, honest, and wide-ranging conversation about resilience. From surviving cancer as a teenager to building a career around helping others navigate adversity, Jake shares hard-earned wisdom about emotional capacity, self-efficacy, and the strength that comes from intentionally doing difficult things, whether that’s running an ultra-marathon or having an uncomfortable conversation. We also dive into identity, growth, and the tension between being shaped by your past and stepping into a new future. Jake reflects on his experience of moving beyond the label of “teen cancer survivor,” embracing new challenges, and why real human connection is more meaningful than any productivity tool or polished keynote. This is a conversation filled with thoughtful insights, reflection, and encouragement for anyone figuring out how to move through the hard stuff that life inevitably brings.
