In this powerful episode, I sit down with Dane L, someone who’s lived through many painful layers of gambling addiction: the rush, the secrets, the chaos, and the fallout that touches every corner of life. Dane talks about burning through jobs, lying to family, and sinking deep into debt , convinced that fixing the money would fix everything. But instead, the addiction took more: his peace, his marriage, and moments with his newborn children he can’t get back. After multiple relapses and rock-bottom moments, Dane finally walked into a GA room for the third time , completely broken, and finally ready to surrender. This conversation is raw, emotional, and deeply human. A reminder that recovery doesn’t begin when the money comes back, it begins when we tell the truth and surrender.  If you’ve ever felt trapped or alone in this addiction, this episode will help you feel seen and remind you that even in the darkest places, light is still possible.
