May 18, 2026 · 16 min

Show notes

In this episode of Mental As Anyone, JMo sits down with global superstar, author, and podcast icon Jay Shetty, ahead of his exclusive Australian tour, This Changes Everything.

Jay opens up about why he struggles with the idea of being the "biggest or best" and why he instead aspires to simply be "the only" by letting all his messy versions, paradoxes, and passions coexist.

They dive deep into the four foundational questions everyone must answer to navigate life, work, love, and service.

Jay also shares how he has reframed self-doubt and pre-show nerves as a sign of deep caring rather than insecurity , explains the crucial balance between soulful sincerity and systematic action , and reveals his absolute number one, zero-skill tip for resolving 50% of our mental health challenges.

Stay tuned until the end to see where Jay ranks on the official JMo Mental Health Scale.
