Escaping the Drift with John Gafford
From Chaos to Podcast Success: Mike C-Roc's Journey of Transformation and Innovation

Well, early because I don't remember my parents ever together. So I came from a lot of brokenness, like a lot, like drug addicts, alcoholic, anxiety, depression, divorce, child support, custody battles. And you had step parents into the mix and their agendas, not getting along with people and just witnessing and watching all this stuff as a kid.

Uh, there's more, I'll go through seasons where I'll, I'll regret it.

I had a vision of start my own restaurant and all this. And then when you're in the restaurant business and you start to party to cash business late nights after you're done at the bar, two thirty three o'clock, you're going to a party and then just, you know, it's just not a good place to be. But that's where I ended up, brother.
