Jonathan Friedman is the President of The Journal That Talks Back, an accessible, affordable and unlimited journaling and coaching app that connects young professionals and post-secondary students with a certified coach so they can manage their mental health, relationships, career aspirations, personal and professional challenges and more.

After 8 years as a Child and Youth Counsellor, he has seen firsthand how important it is for young adults to have access to support and guidance. Jonathan is a mental health advocate and is passionate about journaling, coaching, metal and coffee.

“Every single day when I think about what this will be, I believe in this with every bone in my body.” 

In this week’s episode of the #StartupCanadaPodcast, sponsored by Mastercard and Scotiabank, we spoke with Jonathan Friedman on his journey of building The Journal that Talks Back, how he identified a problem to be solved, and his transition from child and youth care to entrepreneurship.
