Al Richards: Finding Light on the Other Side of Addiction

Episode #448

Honored to sit down with Al Richards on my Beliefcast!

Al is an Internationally Certified Crisis & Recovery Coach, host of The Other Side of Addiction Podcast, and Co-Founder of the Healing Utah Success Summit. His story isn’t just about surviving addiction, it’s about rising stronger through it.

After losing a 24-year career, battling addiction, walking alongside a spouse struggling with alcoholism, enduring a below-the-knee amputation, and then losing his wife just weeks later… Al has lived through heartbreak that most couldn’t imagine.

But through faith, resilience, and learning to harness his emotions, he discovered light in the darkest of places. Today, Al shares his journey to remind others that they are not alone and that transformation is possible no matter how far down they’ve gone.

This conversation is filled with wisdom, lived experience, and powerful reminders of what it means to never give up.
