In this raw and deeply honest conversation, G. Mykal Olson shares his powerful story of falling from a successful international business career to sitting alone in prison—brought down by addiction. Mykal doesn't hold anything back as he opens up about how addiction destroyed his life and family, and what it took to begin rebuilding from rock bottom.

Now, through The Life Forge, Mykal is on a mission to help other fathers break free from the grip of addiction, reconnect with their families, and stop the generational cycle before it begins. His work is saving lives, healing families, and offering a path forward rooted in authenticity, accountability, and hope.

If you're a father struggling with addiction—or love someone who is—this episode is a must-listen. Mykal’s courage to speak the truth may just be the spark someone needs to begin their own transformation.

You can also dive deeper into his story and methods in his book, The Life Forge: Creating a Smoldering Life After Addiction, available now on Amazon:
