Robert Ruesch has been putting words to paper since the mid-1960s, but nothing prepared him for the story he'd one day write with his daughter. Growing up at the world's largest YMCA resort in the Colorado Rockies, surrounded by college professors, world travellers and breathtaking mountain views, Robert's love of storytelling took root early, sparked by a school bully and a creative writing class years later. He went on to become an award-winning author, speaker and humourist, but it's his most personal work, The Long Road Home, that forms the heart of this conversation.

Co-written with his daughter Jennifer, the memoir traces her thirty-year battle with addiction, the overdose that nearly took her life, and the slow, faith-soaked journey toward healing and forgiveness for them both. Robert speaks candidly about the fear of late-night phone calls that went unanswered, the grief of watching someone he loves dig her heels into self-destruction, and the unexpected "coincidences" he believes were God's hand at work all along. It's a raw conversation about fatherhood, faith, forgiveness, and the difference between sobriety and true recovery, and a reminder that hope is never out of reach.
