We begin the show with actor and philanthropist Michael J. Fox, who won this year’s Elevate Prize Catalyst Award, which includes a $250,000 from the Elevate Prize Foundation. The “Back to the Future” star plans to use the funding to further his foundation’s work to find treatments for Parkinson’s disease. During our discussion, Jay revealed to Adam that he has been recently diagnosed with Parkinsons. Jay brings to light more about the disease, what it means, how to live with it, and more. We applaud Jay for his bravery to disclose such a personal situation, to hopefully bring awareness and support to others.
