Today's guest is none other than the very talented, and intelligent Chad Keith, my longtime friend since the transformative year of 2009. He is not just a dear friend but my all time favorite drumming machine. We weathered the storm together at a warranty company, maneuvering through different roles to prevent the ship from sinking. In this candid conversation, Chad opens up about his battles with substance abuse, rehab, and the true meaning of friendship. We also dive into topics like ADHD, my own struggles with depression, and the intriguing exploration of our neurodivergence against the backdrop of our diverse upbringings. But that's not all—join us as we navigate through the realms of homeschooling, parenthood, and the unique influence of our mothers on our lives. Chad's mother, the renowned author and publisher Diane Flynn Keith, adds a fascinating layer to our discussion. Discover how our mothers have shaped our perspectives and influenced the course of our lives. It's a genuine and heartfelt exploration of life's complexities, friendship, and the undeniable ties that bind us.
