Blake started TOMS Shoes. In the beginning, he lived on a sailboat and was happy. Later, TOMS gave away more than 100 million shoes to children. He made a lot of money. But Blake became very sad and depressed. He thought about ending his life. He did not do it. He asked his family and friends for help. He told them he was not okay. That saved his life. A doctor helped him. Blake learned that he always felt he was not enough. He started saying 'I am enough' every morning and night for 40 days. After 28 days, he felt peace. Now he wants to help others. He made a bracelet called the We Are Enough Giving Chain. People give it to someone they love. It says, 'You are enough.' He says talking honestly can save lives.
