Adam Vibe Gunton shares in harrowing detail how his life went
from him being a “golden boy,” the star of every sports team he
played on, to a tragic descent into darkness and dependence on
heroin and prescription painkillers – set into motion by being
introduced to cocaine at 12 and worsened when he blamed himself for
a friend’s suicide.
He wanted to die … until the rekindling of his faith in a
miraculous way set him first on the road to sobriety … and then to
significance. He founded Recovered on Purpose, a nonprofit that
helps men and women in recovery tell their stories in ways that
help others find sobriety, too. Just five years clean, he’s helped
more than 1,000 people overcome their addictions … and has big
plans for even more wide-ranging impact.
You are more than your failures and setbacks. We share stories of leaders who have moved beyond life’s most difficult moments to lead lives of significance, and insights on how you can do the same. Hosted by Warwick Fairfax.
