I know time isn't on my side and that I'll be in my mid-40s by the time I finish my master's, but I'm always telling my kids that they can be anything they want to be, and I'm trying to live that. I might be in my 70s by the time I reach my dream, but I don't care. This job gives me a chance to pay it forward.
Imagine the pain of losing a loved one so suddenly and violently. That's the heartbreaking reality Jason faced when his wife, Jessica, was murdered during a robbery. Struggling to cope with his immense grief while trying to provide for his two young sons, Jason found himself turning to drugs as an escape. For five long years, he spiraled deeper into addiction, losing everything along the way. But this isn't just a story of loss—it's a story of redemption and resilience.
In this episode of 'Transformation Waves', Jason opens up about his darkest days and the turning point that led him to Royal Pines, a faith-based recovery center.

If you're looking for a story that embodies human resilience and the transformative power of faith-based recovery programs, this episode is a must-listen.
