From pronounced dead to $100 million—recovery mogul Ryan Zofay unleashes unfiltered truths about ultimate transformation in this raw Dropping Bombs episode. The founder of "We Level Up" and author of "An Unlikely Businessman" doesn't sugarcoat his journey: 21 felonies by age 16, mother introducing him to drugs at 11, high-speed chase ending in death, then clawing back to build a $175 million addiction recovery empire. This isn't another rags-to-riches story—it's a masterclass in radical responsibility and trauma transformation.

Ryan exposes why voids create values, how unexpressed emotions fuel conspiracies within (like suppressed truths in society), and the real "man up" mindset that scales businesses amid chaos. Ready to level up? This conversation will shatter every excuse preventing your empire-level breakthrough.
