"A suicide attempt at 17. A spiritual 2x4. The dog who helps him rise."
On this electrifying episode of The Cup of Joe Show, Dan W. and his trusty sidekick, Maggie, take us on a rollercoaster ride from chaos to redemption. A high school suspension king, Dan’s life imploded with a suicide attempt at 17, years of institutionalizations, and a brutal war with alcoholism and mental illness. But when all seemed lost, a “spiritual 2x4” smashed through his defiance—thanks to a set-aside prayer that sparked a moment of clarity he’ll never forget. Now a self-proclaimed “freedom junkie,” Dan’s gritty, grace-filled story—bolstered by Maggie’s unwavering loyalty—shows that rock bottom isn’t the end; it’s where beauty begins. Whether you’re clawing your way back, cheering on a fighter, or just love a transformation that punches you in the soul, this episode is for you.
