What do you do when you’ve got too many stories to tell and too many gifts to box up?

In this episode of Uncut Gems, Jay Floyd gets all the way real about the release of his newest book, Rare On Purpose—and the internal tug-of-war it took to bring it into the world. He opens up about the creative overload, the pressure to “pick a lane,” and the personal decision to stop fragmenting his voice just to be more palatable.

This isn’t a promo episode. It’s a truth session.
 It’s about identity. Alignment. Calling. And the journey toward wholeness.

Jay also shares:

• Why Rare On Purpose was the first book he chose to release
• What it means to lead with truth instead of performance
• How he’s learning to show up with all of who he is—coach, tech leader, fiction writer, and man of faith

If you’ve ever felt like you had to shrink your story to fit the feed—this one's for you.

📍Bonus: Jay will be at the Databricks + AI Summit in San Francisco this week. If you see him, say what’s up—especially if it starts with “I bought your book.”
