A Brush With Death — and the Angel Who Intervened

In this episode, artist Bryant Pugh shares how addiction, depression, and overwhelming loneliness pushed him toward a path that could have ended in death.

From that moment forward, Bryant rebuilt his world through honesty, creativity, and the healing power of connection. His recovery, shaped by both art and unexpected grace, became the foundation of a new purpose.
Today, Bryant is the Director of Statewide Training at the Mental Health Empowerment Project, using his journey to empower others to reclaim their voice and transform their lives.
