About No Magic Pill with Blake Mycoskie

As the founder of TOMS Shoes, Blake Mycoskie built one of the most recognized brands on the planet, gave away 100M shoes to children in need and sold it for hundreds of millions, and then he fell apart. At the peak of his success, he felt utterly empty. After a years-long journey through every therapy and treatment imaginable, Blake is finally talking honestly about the dark side of success and the reality of mental health. In No Magic Pill, Blake travels the country to sit down with survivors, experts, and cultural icons who have looked into the darkness and found a way out. These aren’t stories of quick fixes; they are honest conversations about the daily choices, big and small, that create a path forward. Join us for a raw exploration of what actually works on the path to mental wellness.
