Push Each Other to the Top
Push Each Other to the Top is a podcast about recovery, resilience, and the power of honest conversation.
In each episode, Brent shares his journey through addiction, healing, faith, and the long road back — not as an expert, but as someone who’s been there. Host Jonathan listens, asks, and reflects as they explore what it means to fall, and what it takes to climb again.
These aren’t polished success stories — they’re raw, real, and full of hope.
If you're looking for a podcast that meets you in the mess and helps you move forward, you’re in the right place.
