We’re All Hungry for Good Content with Jay Hix Jones

Send us Fan MailAre you hungry for some quality content? The entertainment world is full of content that provides space for consumers to zone out and forget about their own world as they dive into their television. But these times are changing, and more and more people are seeking out content that will educate and inspire them to make the world a better place. On this episode, I talk with Jay Hix Jones, an accomplished producer and writer of unscripted television who has experience working on shows such as Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and Hoarders, just to name a couple. Now, he’s preparing to embark on the journey of moving from behind the camera to center stage. Throughout our conversation, Jay vulnerably shares his experiences working on shows that are simultaneously heart-wrenching and heart-warming, and how his relationship with Christ has inspired him to keep pursuing this meaningful work. He also shares his experience of helping his daughter through cancer treatments, how that has affected his work, and what the future holds for him. Tune in to hear more about Jay’s incredible journey and how his spiritual journey has supported his life and career thus far. Some Questions I Ask: How did your dream to work in Hollywood begin?
