I'd love to learn from the author's experience. Unfortunately, it's heartbreaking that he endured an abusive childhood.

There were so many people whose path was similar to the author's: from being abused as a child to becoming a teenage addict. Thankfully, the author turned the narrative around and the world can listen to their story.

Audiobooks are not my favorite type of books, but knowing the author narrated it himself has me interested in learning how he overcame his challenges. Thanks for the review!

I used to think that I was the only person who went through a horrible start of life

but with Johnnie's book, I have realized how it is usually hell for those who eventually realize success. Thank you Johnnie Callaway for the inspiration

I tried to find the audio book version of this book on Amazon, perhaps mine is simply glitching, but I do better with audio books. That said, however, I definitely enjoyed reading this book as well, I agree with you that this was a very thoughtful memoir and definitely something the world needs. I loved how vividly the author explained everything they went through and how it impacted their life. Their sponsor's intro was definitely from the heart, showing how much the author meant to him. Very incredible read.

The author speaks about his abused childhood, which later made him vulnerable to addiction. The author makes sure that the narrative is not boastful but rather an attempt to help others going through a tough phase. His ups and downs and how he overcame it all give a reader the motivation needed to triumph.

This memoir details the author's battle with drug addiction following an abusive childhood. The story is candid, immersive, and will leave readers with much to ponder. The author's success later in life proves that determination coupled with a solid support system are necessary to escape adversity.
