Author and speaker Ken Miller (Becoming Ken) joins host Chris Mamone on The Empowered Grief Journey to share how he transformed a childhood marked by foster care, abandonment, and violence into a life of recovery, purpose, and service. Once a National Merit Scholar at Dartmouth who fell into decades of addiction, homelessness, and incarceration, Ken recounts the turning point that led him to rebuild his physical, emotional, spiritual, and intellectual health while in prison.
Together, Ken and Chris explore the grief beneath anger, the power of forgiveness, and how “gap control” helps interrupt reactive cycles and foster emotional balance. Ken also unpacks the language of respect and disrespect—from the streets to the boardroom—and how changing our self-talk can transform our lives. Today, Ken is a successful entrepreneur, mentor, and storyteller who models resilience, grace, and love.
