After deadly shootings by federal agents in Minneapolis, Republican Sens.

TOMS inspired a slew of socially responsible companies, but Mycoskie says after he sold the company in 2019, he fell into a deep depression. Now, he’s back with a new venture aimed at promoting mental health awareness. Mycoskie joins host Yasmin Vossoughian to talk about the mission behind ENOUGH, his own mental health journey, how he uses AI therapy and why corporate social responsibility seems to be out of fashion.
