Chad McLean is a veteran, entrepreneur, and mental health advocate redefining how we talk about healing. After surviving his own battle with darkness, Chad turned his pain into purpose and co-founded Mental Joe—a mission-driven apparel brand and nonprofit dedicated to breaking the stigma around mental health, psychedelics, and alternative healing.
