Built From the Mess isn’t a success story. It’s the part before that. This is a solo, honest podcast about growing up in chaos and learning how to build a stable life anyway. Raised in Colorado oilfield camps, navigating abandonment, addiction, survival mode, and the long road out — these episodes aren’t polished or motivational. They’re real. Each week is one story, one theme, and one truth pulled straight from lived experience. The kind of stuff people don’t usually say out loud. The kind of stuff a lot of people carry quietly. If you grew up in a messy home, had to grow up too fast, or are trying to build something solid after everything fell apart — this is for you. No experts. No pretending. Just what it looks like to build a life from the mess.
