TW: Assault and alcohol and drug use. Imagine waking up in a pool of blood—no memory of what happened, no idea how you got there. Now imagine it happening not once… but twice. How do you even begin to process that? Could you ever just shake it off? This week, our guest takes us inside his powerful story—navigating the heartbreaking loss of close friends and surviving not one, but two violent encounters that left him battered and unconscious. It’s a raw and confronting journey you won’t forget.
