This week Darren returned, having met 2X MLB All-Star Shea Hillenbrand, while both were at the Super Bowl in Arizona. Shea’s been through hell and back after his MLB career - flying on his way to his first All-Star game, wondering “why do I feel so empty if I’m supposed to feel so happy after all I’ve achieved”? It was a theme we saw a lot of this week. Two public figures were lost to suicide: Kyle Jacob’s, husband of Kellie Pickler, whose song he’d written for Lee Brice had just gone platinum the day before he was found in his house. We then learned of the suicide of Billionaire Thomas H. Lee at 78. Lee was an icon of the private equity world, and had been struggling recently to raise the same kind of capital he’d been able to at the prime of his career. He was still worth $2 Billion at the time of this death. Darren, Eric, & Theo invited Shea on to talk about that common thread of chasing the “things” - like money & awards, that seem to never lead to finding true happiness or peace of mind.
