Today I am joined by Ricardo Zulueta Jr, the co-founder of Start Day One, a non profit foundation for mental health and suicide prevention with a proactive approach to helping people instead of reactively waiting for mental health issues and suicidal tendencies. We discuss creating vs finding a purpose, how to manage your information intake, the power of decision-making, the impact of trauma on personal growth, and depression as a necessary step in the grieving process.

Should you take out a loan to buy a car? How do you manage a spending addiction? and much more.
