Dallas Bragg went from corporate executive to homeless, confronting the relationships he destroyed and whether he can truly change. He grapples with denial, fear, and the question of whether recovery means becoming someone new or just a better version of who he was.
I had no way to numb the enormity of what I had done to my life. I sat for the first time with the magnitude of falling from a corporate executive position to an unhoused person. I sat with the relationships I had ruined. I sat with the version of myself I had been, the things I had said, the people I had hurt, the years I had lost. I sat with the recognition That the man my family had been praying for was actually me, I was not sure I knew how to ever get back. I sat with the fear of what was on the other side of this. Could I actually rebuild all of this? Could I actually become someone different? Did I have it in me? Or was I going to spend the rest of my life as a recovering version of someone who could never quite recover all the way?
