Ready for an epic roller coaster of inspiration, resilience and triumph? Alison’s guest in this episode, Dave Albin, can certainly deliver. Dave's journey, beginning with the tragedy of his father leaving his family and his subsequent adoption, unfolds into a tale of victory over adversity. From his 19-year tenure as the head of the Firewalkers with Tony Robbins to setting a world-record firewalk with his company, Firewalk Productions, his life exemplifies the power of human spirit and determination.

But it wasn't always a story of success. Dave's battle with addiction took him to the brink of suicide, only to be saved by the compassion of a stranger at Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). His resilience during this dark period in his life is a testament to the power of community and compassion in overcoming the most daunting challenges. With the help of AA, Dave found more than just sobriety - he found a renewed purpose and a peace he had never experienced before.

As Dave walks us through his transformation from addiction sufferer to fearless firewalker, he delves into his time with Tony Robbins. Hear firsthand about his world record-setting firewalk, his experience of being hired by Google, and his belief in using fear as fuel for growth. This episode is a celebration of human resilience, the power of community and how, with the right mindset, we can overcome any adversity.
