Finding peace
My teacher Davidji recommended I connect with Donny Starkins. I’m a retired professional athlete with a high DI profile (DISC) and my brain code is ENTP. I get bored and angry easily when I’m not aligned with my path. Donny’s voice of reason, easiness and sharing of his story of triumph and pain is a God send for me. I believe we need stories and people to sit with us as we adjust, reset and regain our clarity. Thank you Donny and Darrin. This podcast is GOLD for so many of us!

Inspiring and hopeful
Came across this podcast randomly through ig, and I’m so happy it found me! Have been on a hope campaign to change my algorithm from one of just the daily atrocities happening in the world and finding this was a gem. I’m on a hunt for more content like this, because in a time like now. When hope seems impossible, it’s time to create some!

Changed my perspective
I am a fellow AA member since 2019 I was in rehab and have a similar story to that of Darren. I am beyond blessed to have found recovering athletes such as these two. These podcast shows have re-sparked in me a greater focus on my addiction recovery.
I was clean for 2 years since 2019 and relapsed in 2021 but after hearing these podcast I was able to regain focus and clarity on what is it that I want to do in my life these two and all those interviewed have just been a blessing in my life God has placed them in my life for a reason even though it’s just through social media and podcast it has made a huge difference big shoutout and thank you to both 🤘
Currently clean 4 years from all Narcotics and 8 months from alcohol 🔥

Extraordinary!
Darren and I could not be more opposite! I’m 5’2 110# 50 yr old white woman 🙄 with no addiction or comeback story but took out pen and paper when I was listening! Loved every minute of it!!!
* Progression over perfection
* “Fear” only reminds me to keep me on the steps I need to take
* “I’m raising the rent on my life”
These will stay with me forever! Thank you for this! Excited to listen to more!!!

Thank you Darren
Since I saw you open up on hard knocks....right in the start of my journey, I have been motivated and inspired by you. I love you as a Raiders fan for all you do and for your hard work. But I love you as a person even more because you helped change my life, my wife’s life, and my children’s life without even knowing it. I take that same passion and desire to do better everyday to my place of business like you. Thank you

Reach Out
Darren an Donny thank you both for your Come Back stories and the Meditation
Ive started Drinking at the age of 12 and started using at 13 My environment was all about the Party Life which I thought was Normal I never heard of programs till I was 18
So 2017 i got into a Program that’s when I found out there is help for people like me. 2019 I got into a faith based program for woman in San Jose Ca. Graduated
So with that said your Comeback stories are what we need to Hear, the ones who are still suffering, reach out, we are here for you, never give up Cause I thought after 23 years of using that I’d never be where I’m at Today
Darren also I just wanted to tell you
You Have a Beautiful Smile 😁

Truly inspirational
I’m a week into my recovery after a relapse! Hearing Donny talk about his story and coming back after a relapse, really gave me the inspiration I needed today. I’ve been a diehard Raiders fan and when Waller joined the team and shared his story with the world I knew that anything is possible because I felt like my world was over and I would never amount to anything other than my past. I’m excited for this journey, the stories and hope that comes with it. Thank you

Impressed, Intrigued, inspired ... all in
As a fan, I was obviously impressed by the athletic performances of Darren Waller; and then after learning of his story, I was so intrigued... how ? Why? And then thru publications and now this podcast, I am truly inspired. What a beautiful story of a rise - and “fall” followed by a story of perseverance and dedication toward regaining, the always hard earned, and credible rise to notary, that is still climbing- despite previous downfalls. 🙌🏻

So thankful for this
As someone in recovery this is so inspiring and as a boy mom it’s important me to learn how to help my son as he grows up how to talk about his feelings and making sure he’s comfortable with expressing himself. Great podcast!
