Joey is a man in recovery after years of addiction, incarceration, home invasions, and violent crime. Once on Prince Albert’s Most Wanted list, he nearly took his own life in his grandfather’s basement with a sawed-off shotgun. What stopped him—and what came next—is a story of transformation through justice, forgiveness, prayer, and community. Now a mentor, speaker, and CrossFit coach, Joey is reclaiming his story and giving others hope.
