They said I wouldn’t make it.
I spent two decades trapped in the revolving door of addiction and incarceration. I buried more friends than I can count. I should’ve been a statistic—but somehow, I’m still here. And that means something.
I didn’t just survive—I transformed. I clawed my way out of a near-lifelong heroin addiction, rebuilt from rock bottom, and made a promise to turn my pain into a purpose.
If I can rise from that?
So. Can. You.
Let’s make this life count—together.

“You are loved just for being who you are, just for existing. You don’t have to do anything to earn it. Your shortcomings, your lack of self-esteem, physical perfection, or social and economic success—none of that matters. No one can take this love away from you, and it will always be here.”
-Ram Dass
