I sit down with Scott to talk about grief, addiction, emotional suppression, and the long process of healing. We explore how unresolved pain can shape a man’s identity, relationships, and sense of self for years without him fully realizing it. Scott shares parts of his personal journey through loss, sobriety, and learning how to confront emotions he spent years avoiding. This episode is an honest discussion about masculinity, recovery, and what it actually takes to heal.
