Show Notes

In this episode of The Jimmy Rex Show, Jimmy sits down with Jason Vickery, founder of the Jae Foundation, to discuss men's mental health, suicide prevention, and the lessons that emerged after losing one of his closest friends to suicide.

Jason shares the story behind the foundation, how a pair of cowboy boots became a symbol of accountability and connection, and why meaningful conversations can literally save lives. They also discuss brotherhood, vulnerability, parenting, leadership, social media, and what men need most when they're struggling.
