Jack seemed to have it all — a loving family, standout athletic talent, and a Division 1 baseball scholarship by the age of 16. But behind the scenes, he was battling deep emotional pain, addiction, and suicidal thoughts. In this raw and honest interview, Jack opens up about being expelled in 6th grade, spiraling into drug use by high school, and hitting rock bottom just weeks before leaving for college.

After a life-saving decision to enter rehab, Jack has now found purpose helping other young men fight the same demons he once faced. This is a story about ego, pain, identity, family pressure, and the long road to self-awareness and healing.
