Jake Luehrs is in the spotlight this week. Jake is a real estate coach and trainer, and in this episode, he opens up about the challenges he faced in his early life and career.

Jake takes us through his struggles with depression and anxiety. He shares how he worked through those challenges and offers some advice for listeners going through similar experiences.

"The more I pushed it away, the more intense it got."

Jake believes that everyone goes through periods of depression and anxiety at some point in their lives and that letting those feelings work themselves through rather than resisting them is essential.

"I think the biggest challenge that people have is they feel like they need to do it on their own. And I think that that's where we get ourselves into trouble."

Apart from his journey, Jake also talked about his love for sports and how it helped him become more social and make friends. And, of course, his unique story of meeting his wife in college.

"I try to be just as much a listener as a talker. And I think that's been a big part of my success, both personally and professionally."

This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking inspiration to overcome personal challenges.
