This week on Define Insanity, Joe and Justin sit down with Meech, a man whose life took a hard detour before finding its way back. Raised as the son of a police officer, Meech grew up with structure and expectations—but still found himself pulled toward addiction. What began as drinking escalated into drug use, selling drugs, and eventually jail and prison time. His life spiraled fast, and the consequences were real. Sobriety became the turning point. Through recovery, accountability, and deep inner work, Meech rebuilt his life from the ground up. Today, he’s sober and working as a counselor, helping others who are trapped in the same cycles he once lived in. This is a raw, honest conversation about addiction, identity, shame, redemption, and what it really takes to change. Meech’s story is proof that no matter how far you fall, recovery is possible—and purpose can grow from pain.
