    When Flatline Isn't Rock Bottom | Why Identity Reconstruction Fails

    Identity reconstruction after loss isn't automatic—not even after you die. Matt Farnsworth lost everything at 11 years sober: his marriage, his identity, his life. Then he flipped his car at high speed, broke his neck, and flatlined for three minutes. But surviving near-death wasn't enough to change him. This conversation cuts through the myth that rock bottom fixes people—and reveals what actually does. Real talk on why adversity without ego dissolution keeps men stuck.
