I had to go identify my brother with my other brother at the morgue and at that time I was on, you know, I was drinking and I was on Xanax. All those things that I was trying to fill myself up with. I had to identify that the problem was within myself and I had to change.
Picture this: a young man from the Bronx, raised in a traditional Italian Catholic family, making it big on Wall Street. Sounds like the American dream, right? But for John Luppo, that dream quickly turned into a nightmare fueled by drugs, alcohol, gambling, and a fast-paced lifestyle. In this episode of 'The Addiction Podcast - Point of No Return', John opens up about his roller-coaster journey from high-flying success to hitting rock bottom and finding redemption through faith and ministry.
John's story reads like a Hollywood script. After losing his brother to an overdose, he realized his life was spiraling out of control. Despite periods of sobriety, the lure of Wall Street's fast life kept pulling him back into the abyss. It wasn't until another tragic loss—the death of his close friend Pati Burke—that John decided to make a lasting change. At 40, he got sober for good and found solace in faith.
Now, John is the driving force behind Lupo Ministries, dedicating his life to helping others who are struggling with addiction. His message is clear: no matter how far you've fallen, there's always a way back up. This episode isn't just about John's past; it's about the hope and resilience that can emerge from the darkest places. Whether you're battling addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, John's story offers a powerful reminder that recovery is possible.
Tune in to hear how he turned his life around and is now spreading hope through his ministry.
