After leaving the military, Jordan was diagnosed with chronic anxiety and severe depression in 2015 which led him to a very dark period of his life for which he still takes medication for today. Jordan uses adventure, purpose and the great outdoors to manage his mental health and wellbeing and is passionate about the medicinal benefits of blue and green therapy that the natural world and outdoors provides us with. In 2021, despite his high social media profile, Jordan took a 1 year break from all his platforms to raise awareness of the impacts of influencers were having on young peoples mental health.
