Overcoming Adversity

Ep 14: The OA Podcast - A Thug's Life


Listen Later

Take a second to imagine what it must have been like to be a 12 year old boy in the Bronx, NY during the worst crack-cocaine epidemic this country has ever seen. The violence, the gang banging lifestyle, the lack of structure or anyone to look up to but other thugs.

That is what it was like growing up for Anthony Colon. With no one to steer him differently, Anthony led a life that landed him in prison for decades, had him dealing drugs at the age of 13, losing his brother to a brutal murder, and so much more.

Today, Anthony is a better man who has dedicated his life to the service of others. He's filled with gratitude today because he knows whats on the other side. He is also a published author on Amazon and you can find his book HERE.

Enjoy the episode that belongs to the number 14.
