Garrett Brown was thriving in the fast-paced world of creative marketing—but behind the scenes, he found himself leaning on weed and alcohol to keep going. In this candid conversation, Garrett opens up about the moment he realized it was time for a reset. We talk about what it took to walk away from the habits that no longer served him, the role his family played in that decision, and how his new venture, Hazard House, is helping him channel his creativity with clarity and purpose. This is a story about reclaiming your life—and choosing what matters most when the smoke finally clears.
