Josh recounts finding his brother CJ's handwritten wolf-story notebooks after CJ died by suicide in 2011 and transforming them into the Pure Courage series, with the first book Dawn of Valor releasing in February 2026.

The conversation explores how writing and therapy helped Josh process guilt and grief, challenge suicide stigma, and create a purpose-driven project aimed at connecting with young adults and others facing depression.
