Grit Over Shame Publisher's summary

Grit Over Shame is the raw, inspiring true story of David A. Douglas — a man who rose from the chaos of addiction, incarceration, and personal wreckage to build a life of purpose, recovery, and service. From a turbulent childhood in Tacoma to a spiral into methamphetamine use in the 1990s, David’s journey is one of deep lows, powerful turning points, and the long road back.

With honesty, vulnerability, and a voice that’s both gritty and wise, David recounts his years in and out of recovery, the heartbreak of relapsing after a decade clean, and the quiet triumph of rebuilding — one step, one relationship, and one act of courage at a time.

But Grit Over Shame is more than a personal memoir. It’s a message of hope for anyone who’s ever felt broken, for families caught in the storm of addiction, and for those walking their own path to healing. It challenges stigma, embraces multiple pathways to recovery, and reminds us that no matter how far gone we feel, it’s never too late to reclaim your life.

This is not just a story of survival. It's a story of redemption, of generational healing, and of a man who now stands as a community leader, college professor, nonprofit founder, husband, father, and proud grandfather — living proof that grit can carry us farther than shame ever will.
