I Died for 3 Minutes in a Car Crash… Then God Spoke to Me
Description
Matt Farnsworth had 11 years of sobriety… then everything fell apart.
In this raw and powerful conversation, Matt shares how a toxic relationship, a relapse, and a horrific car accident that left him dead for 3 minutes completely changed his life. He opens up about white-knuckling sobriety, codependency, Hollywood darkness, and the moment he finally cried out to God on a bathroom floor.
This is one of the most honest and emotional recovery stories we’ve ever had on The Willpower Podcast.
