Episode Notes

Jeff Sparr was a former college tennis standout in the 1980s at Ohio State, but he struggled internally with his mental health at a time when help was limited. Sparr turned to the painting to manage his issues, he joins the show to explain exactly how his new hobby saved his life and propelled him to be a vessel in helping others.

The conversation is very informative, covering Sparr's interest in painting tennis-specific pieces, started a business that offers support to people with mental health struggles, and how he dealt with the new burdens & challenges of isolation during the pandemic.
