397 Addiction, Violence, and Losing His Brother: Josh's Path To Healing

In this raw and moving episode, Josh shares his unbelievable journey through addiction, violence, and grief — and how he found his way to sobriety. From being stabbed and shot, to losing his brother to fentanyl, to nearly ending his own life, Josh's story is both heartbreaking and inspiring.  Through therapy, music, gratitude, and the 12 steps, he's learned how to take life "one day at a time." This episode is really a story of survival, resilience, and hope. Before we jump in, I have a big announcement!
