I Made $1M in 20 Minutes & Realized I Was Miserable! Jimmy Rex on the Silent Crisis Men Are Facing
In today’s episode, I sit down with the one and only Jimmy Rex, a former top real estate agent who sold the most expensive home in Utah and walked away with a seven-figure commission only to realize that none of it truly mattered without purpose. Jimmy is now the creator of We Are The They, a global men’s movement helping thousands of men reconnect with themselves, their purpose, and each other.
We talk about why so many men feel alone in a hyper-connected world, the masks we wear to feel worthy, and the cost of living for ego instead of authenticity. Jimmy shares raw stories about growing up in chaos, redefining masculinity, and doing the deep inner work most people run from. He speaks truth on friendships, vulnerability, father wounds, and what happens when you finally stop performing and start being.
This episode isn't just about men’s mental health, it’s about human connection, healing, and reclaiming your truth.
Whether you're a man searching for more or someone who loves one, this conversation will hit you deep.
