Pick a day of the week. Anyday. Chances are you would say Friday. Or Saturday, maybe even Sunday because they are or close to the weekend right? But Wednesday? Chances are, Wednesday would be the last day of the week that you or the average person might choose (maybe because it is still within the typical work week?) But this guy has never been 'average' and he chose Wednesday, for good reason.

Judging from this video, about the day Wednesday, and how important that simple day of the week is, Travis Jacobs has found HIS lane and knows exactly where he's going.

If your days have been 'running together' lately, give a listen to Other Side of a Wednesday. We guarantee you'll never look at a Wednesday the same way again.

Travis Jacobs supplied us with more formal information regarding what he does:

Jacobs partners with various Veterans organizations offering writing classes
to Veterans and their spouses to help unfold healing, expression, connection, and
transformation through the art of putting pen to paper.

and the other at the Jameson Annex Penitentiary.

Along with his sister Tessa, he co-founded TnT Healing, a nonprofit that offers free writing experiences to adults and children who have experienced trauma.
