About this episode
At 21 years old, Jay became a monk. For the next three years he applied himself to a simpler life, away from modern trappings.
Ten years later, he tells Fearne what he learned from that time that he still applies today - helping him on the road to helping others - and becoming a best-selling author and podcaster to boot.
