#51: From Restaurant Failure Shame to Creative Comedic Coach | Jay Rooke

Jay Rooke is a business and personal development coach, and host of the podcast and nationally syndicated radio show, Know Pain, Know Gain—Entrepreneurship Made Real.

Is your career or business the safe choice?

Jay shares his winding GFR Wormhole journey from when he left his lawyer salary and suit behind for culinary school, where he birthed the dream of opening a restaurant. Finally, he got the opportunity to buy the “perfect” place on the water in California. Four months later … that dream turned into a nightmare, leading to a huge Get F’n Real moment that happened in his restaurant’s parking lot that changed everything.  

Hear how Jay’s wife has handled being on the whole bumpy ride with him, and how he’s letting go of his corporate identity in favor of his comedic side. Turns out, embracing the funny parts of quarantine with twins has led him to a brand new pursuit.
