Justin Lowry’s story is a wild ride through chaos, collapse, and ultimately, radical redemption. Starting drugs at age 12, Justin’s life spiraled through addiction, business success, bankruptcy, and homelessness—until a near-death hospital stay and jail time forced him to face the truth: he was the problem.
Now sober and thriving, Justin has turned his pain into purpose through Smiles for Recovery, a nonprofit providing free dental implants for people in recovery. What began as a small idea in a borrowed dental chair has become a $6.5M movement that restores not just teeth, but dignity, confidence, and hope.
You’ll Hear:
- How Justin’s childhood chaos and family addiction shaped his early years
- The collapse of his multimillion-dollar business and his spiral into cocaine use
- The jail stay and suicide attempt that became his turning point
- How one mentor and a doctor’s faith gave him a second chance
- The creation of Smiles for Recovery and the miraculous 98% sobriety success rate among patients
- Why restoring a smile can be the most powerful act of recovery
Why Listen:
- To witness one man’s transformation from destruction to service
- To understand how trauma and addiction freeze emotional growth—and how healing restarts it
- To see how one small act of compassion can ripple into life-changing impact
- To be reminded that purpose, not perfection, is what sustains recovery
