Brent shares his journey through 32 years of active addiction, including childhood trauma, the loss of his mother at a young age, substance use, incarceration, overdoses, and the challenges that kept him trapped in the cycle of addiction for decades. Today, with nearly eight years in recovery, Brent uses his story to encourage others to find hope, healing, and freedom.
