Let’s Talk Mental Health with Jonathan Friedman

Jonathan Friedman is the President of The Journal That Talks Back, an accessible, affordable and unlimited journaling and coaching app that connects young professionals and post-secondary students with a certified coach so they can manage their mental health, relationships, career aspirations, personal and professional challenges and more.

After 8 years as a Child and Youth Counsellor, he has seen firsthand how important it is for young adults to have access to support and guidance. Jonathan is a mental health advocate and is passionate about journaling, coaching, metal and coffee.

“Every single day when I think about what this will be, I believe in this with every bone in my body.” 

In this week’s episode of the #StartupCanadaPodcast, sponsored by Mastercard and Scotiabank, we spoke with Jonathan Friedman on his journey of building The Journal that Talks Back, how he identified a problem to be solved, and his transition from child and youth care to entrepreneurship.
