How to Turn Trauma, Addiction & Grief Into Power, Purpose & Positivity | Life Story with Michael Leung

Facing adversity, losing a parent, running the streets, juvie, gangs, alcoholism and depression… this is the real underdog story of how Michael Long went from chaos to choosing himself and rebuilding his life. In this raw conversation with Michael Unbroken, we talk about grief, addiction, faith, cutting toxic friends, and what it actually takes to walk away before you end up dead or in jail.

If you feel stuck in self‑sabotage, numbing out with alcohol, or repeating the same destructive patterns, this episode will show you that your past does not have to be your future. You will learn how Michael lost his mom to cancer, spiraled into fights, crime, and probation, and what finally made him change, quit drinking, and start over.
