840 Blake Mycoskie: Founder of TOMS & We Are ENOUGH
Monday, 18 May, 2026
On today’s episode, we welcome Blake Mycoskie, Founder of TOMS and Founder of We Are ENOUGH — a leader who helped redefine purpose-driven business, and is now asking a much deeper question: what if success isn’t the thing that makes you feel whole? What started as a simple idea—pairing business with giving—turned into a global movement and a $650M brand that changed how companies think about impact. But behind that success was a much more personal journey, one that led Blake to confront his own struggles with identity, mental health, and the pressure to constantly achieve. Not exactly the part of the story most people see. In this episode, Blake shares what really happens after you “make it”—and why so many high performers still feel like they’re not enough. We talk about the hidden side of ambition, the mental health challenges founders don’t often discuss, and how redefining self-worth can change the way we build businesses and live our lives. He also opens up about the transition out of TOMS, what led him to create We Are ENOUGH, and why his new podcast, No Magic Pill, is focused on having more honest conversations about what’s really going on beneath the surface.
