Dan’s story is one of wild partying, chaos, denial - but what does it take to finally change?

For Dan, it was waking up in a police cell after crashing his car whilst heavily intoxicated—with his children in the back. That moment destroyed the last of his denial… but also became the start of an entirely new life.

In this episode of Hope in Hell, Dan speaks with astonishing honesty about:

• Growing up craving acceptance
• Heavy drinking, drugs, and the thrill of chaos
• The mental health spiral during lockdown
• Suicide attempts, homelessness, and losing everything
• The lifeline offered by AA, Renew, and Liaison & Diversion
• Rebuilding relationships and finding purpose in helping others break free from addiction

It’s a powerful reminder that recovery is possible, even when everything seems lost.

If you know someone who needs hope, share this with them.
