Episode #238 – Daryl Dittmer: Living Fully with Joy and Freedom


In Episode #238, we sit down with Daryl Dittmer, a man whose life story is a testament to resilience, growth, and the power of transformation. Born into humble beginnings in a blue-collar family, Daryl learned the value of hard work early in life. From farmhand to carpenter, business owner, and now an author, his journey is as diverse as it is inspiring. At just 19, he faced a life-changing crossroads, choosing the path of recovery and self-improvement that has spanned nearly four decades.

Today, Daryl dedicates his life to helping others experience contentment, joy, and freedom—the principles he lives by. In our conversation, he shares how mentorship, the 12-step program, and a relentless commitment to personal growth have shaped his outlook. Whether hiking the peaceful mountains of North Georgia with his wife, Kristina, or crafting stories that inspire, Daryl’s mission is clear: to uplift others and pay forward the guidance he’s received.

Join us as Daryl opens up about his path to recovery, the habits that keep him grounded, and his advice for embracing life’s challenges with grace and perseverance. This episode is an uplifting exploration of what it means to truly live fully.
