Brother Manny's Journey: From the Streets to a New Life

I tell people, man, you know, don't get clean to just get clean. Days is the common threshold that people fall off, you know, because they say, damn, this is all there is to life.
Ever wondered what it takes to turn your life around after years of struggle? In this episode of 'By All Means Necessary', Marco Morillo chats with Brother Manny, who has an incredible story of resilience and redemption. Manny's journey began on the rough streets, bouncing from one adolescent home to another, eventually leading him down a dark path of drug use. From smoking weed to crack, his life spiraled out of control, culminating in an 11-year stint in jail.
But that's not where his story ends. After a final relapse, Manny decided enough was enough. He committed to a strict program in Narcotics Anonymous (NA), which helped him rebuild his life from scratch. His story is a powerful reminder that no matter how many times you fall, there's always a chance to get back up. Manny also shares the emotional toll addiction took on his family and the challenges he faced reintegrating into society post-incarceration.
What sets Manny apart is his creativity, which has been a crucial part of his recovery journey. Through art, he's found a new way to express himself and heal. This episode is not just about the struggles but also about the hope and hard work that come with recovery. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that proves it's never too late to change your life.
