To Hell and Back: From Addiction to Enlightenment

In this raw and soul-stirring episode, we sit down with Mike Potter—philosopher, author of four powerful books, and former counselor at Minnesota’s renowned Hazelden Recovery Center. Mike takes us on a journey through the darkest corners of addiction and into the light of spiritual awakening. With deep wisdom, lived experience, and a no-holds-barred approach to truth, he shares how pain can become purpose and how hitting rock bottom can be the first step toward enlightenment. This conversation isn’t just about recovery—it’s about redemption, meaning, and the human spirit’s ability to rise.
