About this episode

In this episode we talk to Danny Brockman about navigating the challenges of life and finding balance along the way. We hear about his current charity project raising money to feed the homeless and discover how he followed his passions to create a life that he loves.

We discuss the opioid epidemic in the US, ups and downs of life and addiction in great detail. From this we talk about how Danny got through his tough times, and where he found that motivation to get to the other side.

We cover a lot of intense subjects that we feel need to be talked about. Danny provides a shining and positive example of how he was not defeated by his dark times. We see where he finds his purpose and meaning in life, and how sometimes you need to just keep going to find it.
