Jacob Butchoff: Self Destruction to Self Acceptancence

About this episode

Jacob Butchoff shares his journey from self-destruction to self-acceptance and his work helping others with identity struggles.

This week I talk with Jacob Butchoff, a British man whom I connected with through a friend I serendipitously sat next to on a plane. His life story is incredibly interesting: he harbored deep self hatred for being gay which sent him on a violent journey, one we’re pleased to say he's on the other side of. Today, he helps kids and adult communities alike with their identity struggles, demonstrating how important it is to be one's authentic self. Join me as we hear about Jacob's journey toward self discovery and self acceptance. You can find Jacob on Instagram @jacobcharlesthomas
