Jonathan is an unassuming guy, but hs is also impossible to not notice.

A 6’3 handsome MFer in Bangkok tends to turn heads. But also, I noticed his shirts and hats. I figured out that they were about his own brand - and I can usually tell because I also make my own shirts! 

But the thing you notice next besides Jonathan is the way he interacts, collects, and analyzes in conversation. It’s the type of stuff where you can just tell that someone is completely intent on engaging with the world. As Socrates said, the unexamined life is not worth living.

I met Jonathan at Soho House in Bangkok and he’s a former Team USA Track and field athlete, competing in the high jump, a business coach, and new nomad. As it turns out, being recruited to be on a Netflix reality dating show (take a guess which one), which was the kickstart for him to step out of the world of sport, and explore the actual world using Soho House locations as a compass. This guy is going places - both literally and figuratively. 

We talk about sacrifice, the benefits of 'coachability' in life and relationships, the concept of luck and the absence of control, the US culture of respect (or lack thereof), and Gen Z dating dynamics. Thanks, Jonathan!
