This week, we’re joined by our youngest guest yet, 24-year-old Dan. While it’s common to see people his age in rehab or treatment centers, what sets Dan apart is his teachable spirit, unwavering commitment to sobriety, and passion for helping others.
At just 22, Dan found himself in a jail cell as a result of his choices—a pivotal moment that could have spiraled into something far worse. Instead, Dan reached what many call a "jumping-off point." Faced with two paths, he made the brave decision to confront his actions and take steps toward change, even when it was hard.
In this episode, Dan shares how he turned his life around and the powerful support systems that helped him along the way. A special shoutout to both the Garrity family and the Recovery house family for their unwavering support and unconditional love. Their guidance and encouragement played a crucial role in shaping the incredible young man Dan is today.
Tune in for an inspiring story of redemption, resilience, and the power of choosing a better path.
