Aloha & Mahalo Edition | Season 1 Grand Finale-Dare Me! Podcast Episode 48

Recorded in Honolulu, Hawaii, this final episode from Season 1 of the Dare Me! Podcast closes out a year-long conversation that didn't fake it for clicks or clean it up for comfort.

This final episode of season 1 pulls everything together-family, special guests (including a caller from Saudi Arabia reflecting just how far the show has reached), a reel of celebrity shoutouts the show received along the way, music, fitness, and all the moments that mattered. There's some laughs, some tears, some reflection, and a reminder of why this whole thing started in the first place. No preaching. No polished "recovery story". Just the truth...however it lands. If you've been in it, you'll recognize it. If you're in it now, you'll feel it. If you're watching someone you care about going through it, you'll understand it. Somewhere in all of this, there's a reason this show existed. If it lands with even one person...mission accomplished! 💪🏽 P.S. Stay through to the end for a special song from Glenn and his son-in-law Cameron dedicated to one of the most meaningful moments along the way.
