Born in Hollywood to a single mother, adopted by his aunt and uncle, and told at 11 that his adoptive parents weren't his biological parents, he tried alcohol at 11 and hard drugs by 14.

He joined AA that year and has been sober for over 36 years.In this episode, Dave Albin shares his journey from the depths of addiction to becoming Tony Robbins' Firewalk Captain, setting a World Record in London in 2005 walking over 12,300 people, and eventually founding Firewalk Productions.
