#42: Jade Zaia – Surviving Mental Health, Kiwi Chats and Chad Co

Jade is an entrepreneur and mental health survivor – he runs the clothing label 'Chad Co' that produces quality clothing goods and gives a portion of the profits to support charities working in the mental health space. An absolutely top kiwi and a keen mental health support advocate after battling with suicidal thoughts and depression, there's strength in vulnerability. Jade is a close mate and we share a special connection, after forming a friendship at one of our shared friends funeral. Rest in Peace Connor Garden-Bachop, we love you brother and this one is for you brother.
