Mike Curry has been through it. Homelessness. Prison. Addiction that took him to the lowest places a person can go. And now? He's seven and a half years sober, running his own coaching business, and showing up every single day to help others find the clarity he had to fight hard to get. This conversation is one you're going to want to sit with.

Mike and Alexander get into all of it — the moment Mike surrendered his parental rights because of his addiction, what it felt like to sleep at bus stops in Tucson, and the second time his sponsor asked him what he wanted out of the 12-step process. The first time, Mike said a BMW and a big house. The second time, he said peace in his heart. That shift — that's what this episode is really about.

They also talk about what it means to be a man who actually asks for help. The ego that gets in the way. The feelings we bury that eventually come out sideways. The business owners who are quietly drinking alone in their garages every night because they don't know who to talk to. Mike's been there too, and he's not pretending otherwise.

If you've ever felt like your story was too messy to share, or like you had to keep the mask on just to survive — this one's for you. Mike is living proof that transparency isn't weakness. It's the whole thing.
