What if you could turn your life around after 17 years of addiction? Join us as we sit down with Don Matis Jr., a man who has not only triumphed over alcoholism and drug addiction but now stands as a beacon of hope and inspiration. Don takes us through his painful yet transformative journey, sharing deeply personal moments including jail time, divorce, and the loss of custody of his child. He opens up about the pivotal moment in Texas that led to a spiritual awakening and ultimately transformed his life, offering invaluable insights into the continuous process of recovery and finding happiness beyond substances.

Through a series of candid reflections, Don discusses the complexities of relationships strained by addiction and the profound impact it has on family and significant others. He emphasizes the role of faith and suffering in the journey toward self-discovery and healing, providing a unique perspective on the importance of being open to change and the relentless effort required to maintain sobriety. Don’s story serves as a powerful reminder that recovery is a continuous journey, filled with both hurdles and moments of clarity that guide one towards a better life.

We also dive into Don's mission with his organization aimed at uplifting others through unique branding and advocacy efforts. By highlighting concepts like "Jester for Jesus" and "Stoned on Happiness," Don illustrates how small acts of kindness and purpose can lead to a fulfilling life. He underscores the importance of seeking help and affirming one another, making a compelling case for the significance of community and divine guidance in overcoming addiction.
