John Vasquez, better known as Coach JV is best known for being a social media star with over 1 million followers across TikTok, YouTube and Instagram. However, what some may not know about this internet sensation is that he had a very dark and depressing past. JV, found himself in a very dark place back in 2006, so much so that his depression led him to attempt to take his own life.
Recounting the horrific time in his life, Coach JV tells us ‘’in my lowest moments, around the time I attempted suicide, I remember thinking – this is my life for the rest of my life. I couldn’t even see the next minute. I was literally just trying to survive the day’’.
Fast forward 16 years later to 2022, life couldn’t be any more different for the former banking executive turned online celebrity. Coach JV now finds himself running his own 7 figure companies, he has amassed over one million followers from his heartfelt and helpful videos and most importantly of all, he has the freedom to spend his time how he chooses, which often involves as much quality time as possible with his children. Not alone this but he also dedicates his time to helping others who might be where he once was in life, to achieve their own freedom and happiness.
We asked Coach JV what advice he has for anyone who is struggling right now. He said ’’Everything you’re going through is made for you, nothing is against you. What you are going through is by design, for you to help somebody else in the future.’’ He added ‘’know that you don’t have to have the answer right now. The key is getting your head above water, finding a north star and starting to feel the vibration of love, it will find you. You’re probably reading this article right now for a reason!’’
Unsurprisingly, Coach JV tells us that he gets hundreds of messages and comments every week thanking him for the work that he does. He is always humbled to receive such a strong reaction.
