Joe White, Recovery Pastor and Program Leader at the Los Angeles Mission, joins Carlos Vasquez for an extraordinary conversation about overcoming addiction, recidivism, and hopelessness. After spending over a decade behind bars and battling a 17-year addiction, Joe found hope and lasting freedom through faith, community, and service. Now, as a recovery advocate and spiritual leader in Skid Row, Joe inspires others to rewrite their stories, no matter how dark their past. Together, Carlos and Joe dive into the realities of institutionalization, the barriers men face in seeking help, and the power of restored relationships.
