A Little Crazy with David Magee

By: David Magee
  • Summary

  • Do you have a hard story? Are you looking for hope and how to harness resilience? Here's a podcast for you. I’m David Magee, best-selling writer and podcast host…and I’m a little crazy. But aren’t we all, in one way or another? I was once where you are - lost. I lost it all to mental health and addiction before I learned to manage better and walk confidently against the grain. In this podcast, my co-host Phoebe and I share raw and relatable stories, valuable tools for management and recovery, and personal insights of how to be resilient from the perspective of the individual and their families. My entertaining guests and I vulnerably smash the stigma that we have to hide our hard. We help you bring down the walls that may be holding you back—inspiring you to turn your “a little crazy” into a superpower — finding and keeping the best life all want and deserve.
