Mike has witnessed the devastating impact of addiction in his life, work, and community. He began his career as a Navy helicopter pilot and went on to serve as a Corrections Officer, DC Police Officer, and FBI Agent. In 2010, while teaching at the FBI Academy, he developed a course to help police executives better understand alcoholism, prescription drug abuse, PTSD, suicide, and domestic violence. After retiring from the FBI in 2019, he earned a Master’s in Addiction Counseling and now works full-time as a Behavioral Health Therapist at a major nonprofit hospital. Together with his wife, Lillie, he draws on personal and professional experience to have honest and compassionate conversations about addiction, recovery, and mental health, focusing on breaking stigma, offering support, and sharing resources that remind people they are not alone and that recovery is possible.

  • Episode 186 - From Addiction to Recovery: Better Off for Having Had It

    Episode 186 - From Addiction to Recovery: Better Off for Having Had It
    Mar 18 2026

    In this episode, Mike and Lillie explore a radical perspective on recovery: the idea that you are actually better off having walked through the fire of addiction than if you had never struggled at all. Moving beyond standard "sobriety" talk, they dive into the psychological and spiritual "upgrading" that occurs when a person is forced to rebuild their life from scratch. They assert that the tools required to survive and thrive in recovery—such as extreme ownership, rigorous honesty, and emotional intelligence—often result in a level of character development that "normal" people never have the catalyst to achieve.

    In this episode, Mike and Lillie tackle one of the most confusing questions in recovery: “Am I just a problem drinker, or am I an alcoholic?” Through Mike's personal story and their honest conversation as a couple, they explore the early warning signs he minimized, how his drinking impacted their relationships, and what healthy support and boundaries look like today. This episode offers hope and practical guidance for both the person who drinks and the loved one who's desperate to help, showing that recovery—and healing for the whole family—is truly possible.
