3. Jay Hernandez Opens Up Like Never Before on Trauma, Healing & Self-Destruction – Part1

I’m so excited to share this episode of Mask Off. This time, I’m sitting down with one of my closest friends, actor and director Jay Hernandez, for a conversation that goes way deeper than Hollywood.Jay opens up about growing up surrounded by violence, panic attacks and addiction, and how watching his brothers struggle shaped the pressure he’s carried his entire life. He talks about feeling responsible for his family from a young age and how that became the driving force behind his career.We talk about Hollywood stereotypes, almost walking away from acting before Suicide Squad changed everything, and why success never actually made him feel like he had “made it.”He also shares how years of anxiety, self-destruction and emotional walls eventually pushed him toward deeper healing and self-awareness. From Malibu retreats and breathwork to Burning Man chaos and near-death horseback riding accidents in Mexico, this episode goes everywhere. 😂This is a conversation about identity, survival, masculinity and what happens when you finally stop being so hard on yourself.MY CHANDRA SKINCARE ESSENTIALS (use code MASKOFF15):https://chandrabeauti.com/products/the-super-bundleFOLLOW:Kelly Gale — https://www.instagram.com/kellygaleJoel Kinnaman — https://www.instagram.com/joelkinnamanChandra Beauti — https://www.instagram.com/chandrabeauti/Edited by:Magnus — https://www.instagram.com/thepodfather_magnus/MY CHANDRA SKINCARE ESSENTIALS (use code MASKOFF15)chandrabeauti.comFOLLOW:Kelly GaleJoel KinnamanChandra BeautiProduced by Montana Ave Media GroupMagnus Silfvenius ÖhmanSubscribe for more real conversations on relationships, self-growth and living authentically.Music from Epidemic Sound.
