In this powerful and transparent episode of Rooted & Recovered, Dan and Justin dive deep into Step One of the 12-Step Program: "We admitted we were powerless over our addiction—that our lives had become unmanageable." Whether you're in recovery, walking with God for the first time, or struggling through the weight of life, this episode is for you.

Dan shares his rock-bottom moment—the day he realized willpower wasn’t enough and surrender was the only way forward. Justin opens up about finding grace behind the bars of a jail cell. Together, they break down the lie of "I got this," and point listeners toward a deeper truth: God’s power is made perfect in our weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9).

You’ll hear raw stories, spiritual insight, and real encouragement to let go of pride, drop the mask, and fully surrender. This episode isn’t about shame—it’s about freedom.
