What do you do when life knocks you flat on your back and - whether it’s because of your bad luck or your bad choices or both - you start to wonder if you’ll ever get on your feet again? We intended for this to be part two of our Hurricane Harvey anniversary episode; we wanted to focus on people who found a way to stand tall again after that storm knocked them down. But as people shared their Harvey stories with us, they inevitably told us other stories about other times in their lives that they were flat on their backs, powerless, with no hope. On this episode, we feature Astros President Reid Ryan, Harris County Judge Ed Emmett, a few of Houston's homeless, and a young woman whose life was nearly derailed by drug addiction.
