Pete: From Health and Humor | 149

Today on Behind Beautiful Things, we sit down with Pete, author of Lighten Your Day, to talk about the healing power of humor and hope. Pete shares his story of overcoming a turbulent childhood, working through recovery in a 12-step program, facing serious health challenges, and how he now uses laughter and lightness to inspire others.

Tune in for an honest, uplifting conversation about resilience, recovery, and finding joy through life’s darkest moments.

Please note: This episode contains discussions of sexual abuse and suicidal ideation. Please take care while listening.
