  • E145: Resilience in the Face of the Known and Unknown: Guest Ken Miller
    Feb 5 2025

    In this powerful episode, we sit down with Ken Miller, CFRE, a dynamic trainer, speaker, and consultant who has defied the odds to create a life of success, service, and impact. Born into a turbulent childhood, Ken spent his first six years in foster care before being adopted into a home with a violent, alcoholic father. Despite these early struggles, he made it to an Ivy League college—only to face addiction, homelessness for 20 years, and time in prison.

    Today, Ken is a thriving business owner with over 20 years of sobriety, a dedicated community leader, and an advocate for resilience and healing. He shares his journey of overcoming shame, breaking free from self-destruction, and finding purpose beyond pain. We also discuss his upcoming book and the message of hope he wants to spread to those still struggling.

    This is a must-listen for anyone battling addiction, shame, or the weight of past trauma—proof that no matter how dark the past, the future is unwritten. 💡🎙️
