Summary

#887. Country artist Chase McDaniel doesn’t just sing about pain—he’s lived it. In this raw and emotional episode, Chase opens up to Kaitlyn about the night he nearly ended his life and the miracle that pulled him back. He shares the loss of his father to addiction and the weightlifting accident that sent him to the hospital with no memory of who he was.

But this isn’t a story of tragedy—it’s a story of comeback! From being down to his last $12 and ready to walk away from music… to climbing the charts with his debut single and preparing to open for Jason Aldean, Chase reveals how he turned pain into purpose and built a movement for the “Lost Ones” who feel alone.

This episode will take you on an emotional journey and leave you believing in miracles, redemption, and the power of not giving up.
