In this candid and emotional conversation, Brian Blevins recounts his journey from being a drug addict to his transformative journey towards recovery and helping others. He discusses getting arrested on Thanksgiving day in 2015, being faced with potentially spending the rest of his life in prison, and having a spiritual encounter that changed his life during a difficult withdrawal period in jail. Brian shares his commitment to recovery, his reconnection with faith, his experiences with programs like Celebrate Recovery, Narcotics Anonymous, and how a chance encounter with a former law enforcement officer, turned the tide in his favor. Through education, service to others and the power of forgiveness, Brian has been able to rebuild his life, connect with a greater sense of purpose and even start his own business, a food truck called 'Chubby Burgers'. Brian's compelling journey offers hope and inspiration to anyone battling addiction.
