About this listen

Two years ago, Jon ran for city council as a write-in candidate — and lost.
But that loss became one of the most meaningful experiences of his life.

In this episode, Jon unpacks what that experience taught him about courage, leadership, and why comfort never leads to growth. He shares how losing publicly taught him to show up, to let his kids see failure modeled with grace, and to find purpose in discomfort.

Because the truth is: comfort doesn’t create transformation — discomfort does.
