On episode 171 of the Mile 40 Podcast, host Bishoy Tadros sits down with Austin Johnson, a world-traveling filmmaker and media agency owner whose journey is as transformative as it is inspiring. Austin Johnson opens up about his upbringing in rural Utah, the challenges of growing up in a family grappling with addiction and emotional disconnect, and the search for validation that shaped his identity through sports, relationships, and ultimately, alcohol.
After reaching a turning point marked by personal struggles and the dissolution of his marriage, Austin Johnson made a courageous decision to go sober. He replaced alcohol with a camera, channeling his energy into storytelling both as a form of therapy and a way to positively impact others. Through vulnerability and self-reflection, he shares how taking ownership of his past allowed him to rewrite his narrative and surround himself with inspiring people.
This powerful conversation explores the themes of authenticity, family dynamics, self-growth, and the ongoing nature of the comeback journey. It’s a testament to how the messiest moments of life can become the biggest catalysts for change—and how the story you choose to tell can help others find hope in their own transformation.
