Rock to Recovery - Wes Geer

About this episode

Wes Geer shares his journey from rock star to founder of Rock to Recovery, focusing on healing through music.

Wes Geer chased rock and roll the way some people chase salvation, all in, full volume, no brakes. Wes Geer went from a kid with a guitar and a dream to co-founding Head P.E., tearing through the chaos of the '90s rock scene, then playing with Korn, and living the kind of life that looks electrifying from the outside and destructive from within. Fame, excess, addiction, collapse, Wes lived every mile of that road. But this episode is not just about the rise and the wreckage. It is about what happens when someone survives the fire and comes back carrying a torch, or in this case, a guitar. Today, Wes is the founder of Rock to Recovery, using music not to fuel self-destruction, but to help others heal, reconnect, and find their way back. This is a wild, hard-living, soul-searching adventure through music, darkness, redemption, and the power of turning your greatest pain into a path for others.
