Joey Morgan is a successful entrepreneur who went through a mental health crisis. The speaker, Steve Ramona, interviews Joey about his journey and the lessons he learned.

Joey previously owned three successful sports bars/restaurants in Manhattan. He describes himself as always good at building relationships and getting things done. However, due to the stress of managing multiple locations and dealing with demanding investors, Joey eventually had a panic attack and collapsed.

This even led Joey to realize that he needed to change his life. He went to therapy and learned how to detach himself emotionally from his problems. Joey also highlights the importance of mental health for entrepreneurs and warns them about the dangers of neglecting it.

One key takeaway is that entrepreneurs need to be honest with themselves and take responsibility for their mistakes. Joey also emphasizes the importance of providing excellent customer service and never taking customers for granted. Finally, Joey encourages listeners to ask for help and build a support system.
