OG Badger's Story: Addiction, Prison, and the Road to Recovery

If you don't take a chance and find out that you can get some freedom out of it...we have steps to show you how to get out of that, you know.
Ever wondered what addiction looks like behind bars? In this gripping episode of the SOAR podcast, Dustin, Frank, and the SOAR crew sit down with OG Badger, a recovered 1%er and the face behind 'OG Badger’s Heavy Hitters' on YouTube. Badger's journey is a raw and unfiltered account of life in addiction, his tumultuous time in the California prison system, and his eventual path to recovery.
From being introduced to hard drugs by his own father at just 13 years old to spending 20 years in prison for what started as a minor offense, Badger's story is both harrowing and inspiring. He shares how fitness, spirituality, and nutrition played pivotal roles in his recovery and how the student-to-coach model helped him build a solid foundation for a new life.
This episode isn't just about the darkness of addiction; it's about the light at the end of the tunnel and the power of transformation. Tune in to hear how Badger turned his life around and how he's now using his experiences to help others avoid the same pitfalls.
