John’s story is not a highlight reel. It’s a cycle of rise, collapse, and rebuilding.

After surviving a devastating car accident that cost him his leg, John went on to work in Hollywood, appearing in productions like NCIS, ER, and Superbad. From the outside, success followed — but internally, the trauma never healed.

That unresolved pain eventually led to addiction, isolation, and rock bottom — living in a mold-infested trailer on a riverbank in Tennessee, stripped of identity, stability, and hope.

This conversation goes beyond surface-level motivation. We talk about:

• Addiction and the lies of external success

• Trauma that follows survival

• Losing identity after loss and injury

• Surrender, accountability, and faith in Jesus Christ

• What real redemption actually requires

• Building strength through responsibility, not hype

Today, John uses his story to help men confront truth, take ownership, and rebuild their lives with integrity and purpose.

This episode is for anyone who’s been broken, humbled, or forced to start over — and chose not to quit.
