David had reached the kind of success most people only dream about. He was performing around the world, creating music, and achieving goals he had worked toward for years. But behind the scenes, he was carrying unimaginable grief.
After losing both of his parents within a short period of time, alcohol slowly became more than something to unwind with. What began as an occasional escape turned into a daily battle that eventually led to rehab, jail, failed attempts at sobriety, and nearly losing everything.
In this episode, David shares the moments that shaped his addiction, why high-functioning alcoholism can be so difficult to recognize, what finally broke through after years of trying to quit, and how faith, family, purpose, and recovery helped him rebuild his life.
This is an honest conversation about grief, identity, relapse, shame, forgiveness, and the hope that recovery is possible—even after years of believing it wasn’t.
If you’re struggling with alcohol or supporting someone who is, we hope David’s story reminds you that you’re not alone, and that change is always possible.
