episode Purpose After Pain | Austin Greenleaf cover

Description

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Austin Greenleaf — a Michigan native, baseball kid, and survivor — who opens up about growing up in chaos, descending into substance abuse, a life-changing car accident, and the long road to recovery, accountability, and authentic living. Austin shares what it really took to break the victim mindset, build a community he could trust, and start showing up for himself — and for others. Whether you're in the pit right now or supporting someone who is, this conversation will meet you where you are.

Surf, Drugs, & Redemption | Logan Dulien

Mark reconnects with childhood friend Logan Doolan — a Newport Beach local who went from Volcom's first shop grom to producing award-winning surf films, only to lose it all to an OxyContin addiction before staging one of the most unlikely comebacks in surf culture. Logan shares the full story: growing up in Newport with a dysfunctional home life, finding a second family through The Frog House, hosting the world's best junior surfers (Andy Irons, the Hobgoods, Mick Fanning) at his house with zero parental supervision, building the Snap surf film franchise, touring the world with Mickey Avalon, and the slow descent that followed the OxyContin epidemic hitting the surf community. Most powerfully, Logan opens up about how he got clean — not through traditional AA, but through an unconventional recipe of Vivitrol shots and surfing every single day — and how that recovery fueled the creation of Snap 3, 4, and 5, the last of which screened at 60 premieres across 30 countries and won Movie of the Year. This is a story about resilience, redemption, and the healing power of the ocean.
