This week on The Battle Between, we sit down with an extraordinary guest whose journey is nothing short of powerful. Rick Johnson, a man who’s battled addiction, ran away from home at 16, and turned his life around to become a top-producing real estate consultant and a dedicated mentor. With 32 years of sobriety under his belt, Rick brings raw honesty and lived experience to the mic—sharing not just his past as a punk rocker and Army medic, but his purpose: to tell his story in hopes it might help—or even save—someone else.


From serving on boards of major charities to emceeing high-profile galas and even qualifying as an alternate for the U.S. Open in golf, Rick has channeled his life lessons into impact, leadership, and service. Tune in to hear how a “real knucklehead” became a force for good, proving that the battles we fight can lead to incredible victories. You can connect with Rick on Instagram at @cdmrick62.
