This week’s episode comes from Methodist Hospital in Omaha, where I’m recovering after years of alcohol abuse finally caught up with me. I talk honestly about facing the reality of my condition, beginning sobriety, and reconciling with God, my family, and myself.

I also share real gratitude for the doctors, nurses, techs, and staff who are helping keep me alive. It’s a raw, unpolished episode about hitting a turning point and choosing to fight for your life one day at a time.
