About this episode
Today's guest really poured into the young men of Apogee. He talks about his experience growing up without a father and how that got him searching for a tribe in all the wrong places. That set him down a path that took some hard-hitting experiences and great male figures in his life for him to realize he needed to make a change. And boy did he. All that and more on today's episode.
