In this inspiring episode of Let's Get Naked, JMach shares his journey of healing and self-discovery after leaving the military, reflecting on how his childhood, early struggles with depression, and toxic eating patterns shaped his path. He opens up about the painful yet transformative process of doing the inner work, the importance of healthy emotional expression for both men and women, and how fear, shame, and coping mechanisms like alcohol and food can hinder growth. JMach also discusses the evolving role of marijuana and psychedelics in mental health, the power of starting and ending the day with intentional thoughts, and why embracing baby steps and failure is essential to true healing.

This podcast dives deep into real, raw topics—think vulnerability, triggers, and childhood trauma. But just so we're super clear: I’m not a licensed therapist, mental health professional, or anything close. I’m just a human sharing stories, lessons, and life hacks based on personal experience and a whole lot of curiosity.
So, while you might find some golden nuggets here, this is not therapy and should never replace professional mental health care. If you or someone you love is going through it, please—seriously—reach out to a licensed therapist or healthcare provider. You deserve the real deal.
