Our guest today is Brad Butler II. His story brings a new perspective to the Cleverly Changing Podcast because he spoke about growing up in a home where his parents and grandmother were functioning addicts. We believe that all people have the ability to rise from adversity to listen to Brad tell us about his journey from special ed to becoming a Mentor, educator, and motivational speaker. He is also the author of the book “Pain Passion Purpose” so please listen to the full episode and be inspired.
