In this deeply moving episode of the VinnyRoc Podcast, host Vincent Vargas sits down with Mikey Horbaczewski, a Marine Corps veteran, father, and podcast host of Life Unlocked with Mikey. Together, they explore Mikey's emotional and transformative journey from the streets of Chicago and a life immersed in gang culture, to surviving a traumatic deployment in Afghanistan, and ultimately finding healing, leadership, and purpose.

Mikey Horbaczewski opens up about his military experience, the devastating loss of a mentor, battling a severe injury, and struggling with mental health and addiction after returning home. But through resilience, community, and guidance—including Light the Fuse retreats and mentorship—he's rewritten his story as a present father, devoted husband, and inspiring voice for fellow veterans and men seeking growth.

This episode is a powerful reminder that healing is possible and that leadership and love go hand in hand.
