Ed Kressy: From FBI Arrest to Redemption Through Faith and Second Chances

My story proves that, with spiritual principles guiding our lives, we can truly overcome even the most challenging obstacles, the depths of psychosis, the depths of terror and horror that I rose above.
What if you were arrested by the FBI, only to later receive a community service award from the very same organization? That’s the remarkable journey of Ed Kressy. In this episode of 'Recovery Survey', host Brett Morris chats with Ed about his incredible transformation from a life plagued by addiction and mental health struggles to one filled with purpose and service. Ed’s story is a rollercoaster of highs and lows.
He once threw away his career, home, and even his beloved dog due to his drug abuse. Deep in meth psychosis, he believed the FBI was conspiring against him. Yet, it was the very people he feared who helped him find his way back. Ed’s turnaround wasn’t just about getting clean; it was about finding faith and purpose. He discovered a newfound belief in God and began volunteering inside maximum-security prisons, helping law enforcement better serve communities impacted by addiction.
His journey also led him to publish a book, overcoming suicidal depression and crippling anxiety along the way. This episode is not just about the power of second chances but also the incredible impact of spiritual principles in overcoming life's toughest challenges. Ed’s story is a beacon of hope, showing that no matter how far you've fallen, there’s always a way back up. Tune in to hear Ed’s full story and get inspired to push forward in your own journey.
