Radon, founder and CEO of Recovered and Free, and TEDx Southlake speaker. Don shares his raw, personal journey from addiction to long-term recovery, and how it inspired him to build a radically different kind of recovery program. Unlike traditional treatment centers driven by insurance payouts and clinical detachment, Recovered and Free is a peer-led, private-pay men’s program that prioritizes real connection, honest dialogue, and practical freedom.
Based in small-town Hubbard, Texas, Recovered and Free stands apart by staying intentionally lean and fiercely human. No insurance. No “spa treatment.” No clinicians with clipboards. Just recovered addicts helping other addicts find their way out—because they’ve lived it. Don’s approach centers on restoring dignity and equipping men with sustainable tools for long-term sobriety, so they can re-enter life as better husbands, fathers, and neighbors. Alumni regularly return, not out of obligation, but to stay grounded and give back. It’s not treatment—it’s transformation.

Instead of over-relying on automation or billing like the Big Four, they take a relationship-driven approach. Isaac also shares thoughts on how AI is shaking up EdTech, why judgment still matters in finance, and how Teknos helps founders avoid false precision in a world obsessed with data.

Teknos Associates is a full-service valuation consulting firm with deep experience in financial reporting, tax compliance, and 409A valuations.
