Michael is a husband, father, and friend, and a self-employed carpenter whose life was profoundly upended in 2018. That year, his middle child began struggling with serious mental health challenges and turned to drugs to cope, quickly developing an addiction. At first, he believed this was something he could “fix”—he thought he could fix anything. But after four months and several treatment programs, it became clear that he could not solve the problem for his child. That moment marked the beginning of both his child’s recovery and his own journey of growth and healing.
