What if healing started with nothing more than opening your garage door?
Carlin Lutzer sits down with Richard Cowper-Smith, a man who turned his garage into a safe haven for men battling isolation, mental health struggles, and the weight of life’s pressures.
Richard shares his deeply personal journey of confronting addiction, PTSD, and an autism diagnosis, revealing how faith, community, and vulnerability helped him rediscover purpose.
From suicidal lows to Thursday night coffee chats with strangers-turned-friends, Richard’s story is a raw and beautiful reminder that showing up for each other can change lives.
Tune in for a conversation that’s equal parts heavy, hopeful, and wholly human.
