In this episode of Passion Struck, John R. Miles explores the remarkable redemption of Josh Hamilton, once one of baseball’s top prospects, who spiraled into addiction only to make one of the most inspiring comebacks in sports history. Hamilton’s journey—from being the first overall MLB draft pick to battling addiction, hitting rock bottom, and reclaiming his career—teaches us profound lessons about resilience, purpose, and the power of second chances.
Join us as John breaks down five powerful lessons from Josh Hamilton’s story, revealing how he turned pain into purpose, found significance in adversity, and rebuilt a life that goes beyond baseball. This is more than a story about sports; it’s a roadmap for anyone looking to overcome their own setbacks and live with intention.

What can one person do to change the world? Julia Butterfly Hill answered this question with an extraordinary act of courage and conviction. In 1997, with no formal training in activism or environmentalism, Julia climbed into a 1,000-year-old redwood tree named Luna and refused to come down for over two years. Her purpose? To save the ancient redwood from being logged.
In this episode of Passion Struck, we examine the powerful story behind Julia's 738-day tree-sit and how her unwavering commitment drew global attention to the devastation of ancient forests. Julia’s story isn’t just about environmental activism—it’s a profound example of how one person’s intentional choice can spark a ripple effect, inspiring people worldwide to take action for causes they believe in.
Through Julia's remarkable journey, we unpack her lessons about courage, personal transformation, and the power of standing up for something—even if you're standing alone. You’ll also hear insights on how you, too, can make a difference, starting with the small choices you make every day.
