Exploring Life & Business with Bob Jacobs of Churchill Mortgage

Today we’d like to introduce you to Bob Jacobs.

Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
As a businessman, author, and someone deeply involved in Nashville’s professional and social circles, I’ve spent years cultivating relationships, building companies, and giving back to my community. But for a long time, I was fighting a battle no one could see.

For years, I battled severe depression and anxiety. From the outside, everything looked fine—successful career, loving family—but inside, I was unraveling. At my lowest point, I questioned whether life was worth living.

Now, I share my story so others know they’re not alone. I want people—especially those who seem like they’ve “got it all together”—to know it’s okay to not be okay. There is strength in vulnerability, and healing begins with conversation.

These days, I travel the country speaking about mental wellness—how small, honest actions can lead to real healing. A check-in, a conversation, a shared story—these moments can save a life.

I’ve learned that the most important relationship we have isn’t with clients, colleagues, or communities—it’s with ourselves. And when we take care of our mental health, everything else begins to align.

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
“I know what it feels like to believe there’s no way out,” said Jacobs. “But I also know that hope is real. I was able to get help, and now my mission is to let others know they can, too. No one should suffer in silence.”

Thanks – so what else should our readers know about Churchill Mortgage?
Beyond his advocacy work, Jacobs has spent over 15 years working with Churchill Mortgage, where he serves as Director of Affiliate Business and is a Partner in Champion Title Ventures. He is also the author of Rack ‘Em Up and Win: Tips to Building Successful Business Relationships and serves on multiple industry and community boards.

Networking and finding a mentor can have such a positive impact on one’s life and career. Any advice?
I recommend creating a personal board of directors you can reach out to and discuss both business and personal decisions.
