Listen Later

“I had my gun in my hand… and my kids were right there.” In one of the most raw and riveting episodes yet, Anthony Wilson opens up about the moment he hit rock bottom—and what pulled him back. From ADHD misdiagnosis and childhood trauma to a 911 call that saved his life, Anthony’s story is a powerful testament to resilience, transformation, and self-love. He takes us through his journey from self-destruction to healing: yoga at sunrise, journaling on ayahuasca in the Colombian mountains, and a spiritual awakening that led him to sobriety and purpose.

This isn’t just a story about mental health—it’s about reclaiming your identity, rewriting the narrative of masculinity, and redefining what success really means. Whether you’re healing from trauma or searching for deeper meaning, this episode reminds us that the love we’re looking for often starts within.
