006. Why Relationships Are The Greatest ROI with Jimmy Rex

Adam Williams

We’re joined by Jimmy Rex, real estate leader and author, on how social media masks loneliness, why surface-level relationships don’t last, and how men can build true friendships that change their lives. This conversation dives into the power of authenticity, the danger of comparison, and why showing up vulnerably is more valuable than looking perfect.
