Ever wondered what it's like to go from the glitz and glamour of Hollywood to a life of sobriety? John Mabry's story is one for the books. As an actor and stuntman, John seemed to have it all – a big bank account, a fancy condo, and an elite social circle that included movie stars at the Playboy Mansion.

In this episode of The Recovery Revolution, John sits down with host Omar Pinto to share his incredible journey from addiction to recovery.

John also discusses the unique challenges he faced recovering with a physical disability, having lost a leg in a car accident. The conversation delves into the importance of family support in both addiction and recovery, as well as the broader impact of addiction on society. John reveals how mindfulness and physical activity became his anchors in recovery, finding peace through something as simple as a punching bag.
This episode is packed with insights and inspiration for anyone on their own path to sobriety or supporting someone who is. John's story is a powerful reminder that no matter how charmed someone's life may seem, struggles with addiction can lurk beneath the surface. Tune in to hear how he turned his life around and found serenity against all odds.
