Sharing inspiring stories of adversity and the journey to freedom! My name is Robert and for years, I struggled with addictions from crack to methamphetamine and everything in between.

But my story is just one of many and I am on a mission to share real stories from real people who have made it through some tough times and give others going through it the beautiful gift of HOPE! Get inspired and encouraged as we celebrate some highs, cry through some lows, and learn to live one day at a time. I’m not pushy or preachy, I’m just glad you are here!
