This week Jiunta welcomes Jay Jones to the Podcast. From walking on to a D1 football team, to becoming a First Lieutenant in the U.S. Marines, Jay’s story is a raw and unfiltered journey through identity, failure, and grit. Tune in as the guys talk about what happens when hard work isn’t enough, why identity beyond sport matters, and how the lowest moments can redefine your purpose.
