Some stories are forged in silence. For Steve Knapp, the weight of carrying secrets finally gave way to a single act of truth—the night he admitted his drinking and chose to change his life.

In this conversation, Steve shares his powerful journey from addiction to recovery and the lessons he’s carried into fatherhood, personal growth, and his work creating safe spaces for connection and honest dialogue — especially around men's mental health — through his podcasts, Through the Glass Recovery and Forged in Silence.

With raw honesty and vulnerability, Steve reflects on:

• The cost of self-abandonment
• The courage it takes to come back to yourself.
• Why strangers can sometimes offer the safest spaces for healing.
• Redefining fear as something to walk alongside, not run from.
• Creating connection in a world that often feels disconnected.

Whether you’ve faced addiction, carried hidden shame, or simply struggled to be present in your own life, Steve’s inspiring story is a reminder that we don’t climb life’s mountains alone—and the view is always better when shared.
