About this episode

Devin Fish shares his transformative journey from trauma to purpose, discussing vulnerability and resilience.

In this raw and powerful conversation, U.S. Army Veteran, writer, and motivational speaker Devin Fish shares how he transformed a childhood of instability, poverty, and trauma into a life of purpose. He opens up about battling self‑hatred and addiction before the Army, and how a single question — “Do I want to die?” — became the turning point that changed everything. While deployed in Kuwait, he began writing the book that forced him to confront his deepest wounds. With more than seventy introspective prompts, his work challenges others to do the same. We talk about the prompt that impacted him most, the role military structure played in his healing, and the pressure to “be strong” that often kept him silent. He speaks candidly about breaking generational cycles, embracing vulnerability, and redefining strength as both a man and a soldier. Whether you’re facing your own hard questions or searching for a path forward, this episode offers clarity, courage, and hope. A testament to resilience and the power of choosing to live.
