🎙️ Tha Motiv8tor’s Table Podcast
From the battlefield to the boardroom—this is not motivation, this is survival turned into purpose.
Tha Motiv8tor’s Table Podcast delivers raw, transformational conversations about resilience, healing, leadership, and rebuilding from rock bottom. Hosted by JayR McIntyre, widely known as Tha Hood Motiv8tor, this platform goes far beyond inspirational talk—it confronts truth, trauma, and the real cost of becoming great.
JayR McIntyre is a U.S. Army Combat Veteran, Bronze Star recipient in combat, TEDx Speaker, author, and Top 50 Motivational Speaker in the World. He is also a proud member of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc., grounded in service, leadership, and community uplift.
JayR is the author of three powerful books available on Amazon:
From the Block to the Board
Tha Elephant
A Good Heart Don’t Pay Bills
Each book reflects lived experience—unfiltered lessons on trauma, leadership, generosity, failure, and rebuilding when life hits hard.
JayR’s journey did not begin with privilege or opportunity.
He grew up in the heart of California’s gang culture, witnessing his mother’s battle with drug addiction before losing her to AIDS. As a child, he experienced homelessness and lived on Skid Row, learning survival before success. Later, he served three combat deployments to Iraq, returning home with the invisible wounds of PTSD and Traumatic Brain Injury—battles that reshaped his life forever.
After the military, the war didn’t end.
JayR faced devastating business failures, financial collapse, and identity loss—only to rebuild from the ground up. He earned his MBA in Business, became a Doctoral Candidate in Business (Graduating 2026), and transformed pain into purpose—building a global platform rooted in truth, discipline, and resilience.
Every episode of Tha Motiv8tor’s Table dives into:
Rising after trauma and loss
Leadership forged under pressure
Entrepreneurship without filters
Faith, identity, and starting over
Mental health, resilience, and accountability
JayR doesn’t speak from theory.
He speaks from experience.
This podcast is for:
Those climbing out of dark seasons
Veterans carrying invisible wounds
Entrepreneurs rebuilding after failure
Anyone hungry to become the strongest version of themselves
This isn’t hype.
This isn’t fluff.
This is survival refined into purpose. 💯🔥
