In this powerful and brutally honest episode, Joey is joined by Corey Schonhorst for a candid ride-along where nothing is off limits. What starts as a casual catch-up quickly turns into a deep dive into Joey's personal journey through depression, self-destruction, and ultimately—a spiritual and emotional turning point.
Together, they talk through:
🔹 Hitting rock bottom and losing yourself
🔹 Walking away from toxic validation
🔹 Faith, fatherhood, and finding purpose
🔹 The dark side of putting on a brave face
🔹 Counseling, change, and coming home to yourself
Joey doesn’t hold back as he shares how November 12th marked a crossroads in his life—and what it meant to choose healing, even if it meant losing everything else.
If you’ve ever felt lost, overwhelmed, or like you're faking your way through life, this one’s for you.
