In this gripping episode of Raw Minds Podcast, Erick welcomes Steve from @MenThriveDaily, a man whose life was shattered by a traumatic brain injury and who chose to rebuild it with fire and faith. After being struck by a drunk driver and left on the side of the road, Steve faced years of loss, pain, and unanswered questions. But instead of giving up, he leaned into the chaos, found God, created a farmland to feed the struggling, built housing for the homeless, and launched a mental health movement on TikTok that’s helped save lives.
Steve shares raw truths about post-traumatic growth, the battle with invisible injuries, losing his identity and finding a new one through purpose, painting, and pouring love back into his community. Erick opens up too, drawing powerful parallels between his own journey after loss and the mission behind Raw Minds: to ensure no one feels alone in their darkest moments.
This one’s for the underdogs, the fighters, and the ones who’ve been counted out. It's about grit you can’t teach, hope you can’t fake, and a community that’s showing up for each other one raw story at a time.
