Summary

Today's podcast is one of the most moving episodes we've ever released.

I have the extreme privilege of sharing the story of Kallup McCoy II. From the age of 11, Kallup started his battle with drug addiction, which led to overdosing on heroin six times and time in prison. From a life that lacked purpose and was full of pain, Kallup struggled to find meaning in life.

In today's conversation, Kallup shares his remarkable story in full. From getting into addiction at the age of 11 to running the trail of tears after he got out of jail to all the ways he's giving back to his community presently.

This is one of the most moving podcasts I've ever recorded. Kallup's story is one of redemption, and I know it will touch you in powerful ways. Sincerely, take the time to listen to it.
