Brandon Turner: Skateboarding, Trauma, and Triumph Over Addiction

My traumas were buried and I had a lot of issues, and they didn't come out till later when I was wasted and people would be like: what's wrong?
How does a skateboarding prodigy turn his life around from addiction to becoming a beacon of hope for others? Brandon Turner, known for his incredible skateboarding skills, sits down with Jason LaChance on 'Knockin' Doorz Down' to share his powerful story. From battling substance abuse and unresolved trauma to breaking skating records at 39, Brandon's journey is nothing short of inspiring.
He opens up about his tumultuous past, including discovering that his 'sister' was actually his mother, and how these revelations fueled his addiction. But Brandon didn't let his past define him. Partnering with Healthy Life Recovery in San Diego, he has created a unique skate recovery program aimed at helping others struggling with addiction. His story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of passion.
Brandon's candid conversation sheds light on the darker sides of skate culture and how he's using his platform to foster change. Whether you're a fan of skateboarding or looking for motivation in your own recovery journey, Brandon's story offers hope and inspiration.
