This one’s a powerful story of rock bottom turned renaissance. Rafael McMaster shares about sobriety, self-awareness, and a mission to help the next generation live consciously. 

We talk about how art became his medicine, how he built a creative community that heals, and why emotional tools like acceptance and gratitude should be taught in schools.

You’ll hear how his nonprofit, Indivisible Arts, is giving kids the tools to handle life’s hard stuff through creativity and mindfulness - and how that healing ripples outward. 

It’s a reminder that recovery isn’t about perfection, it’s about purpose.
