John Giordano – Nisei Gōjū-ryū – Ep178

John Giordano’s life story is one of incredible transformation. He overcame the stigma of childhood sexual abuse, homelessness, and severe addiction to become a renowned addiction expert with 39 years of sobriety.

He founded his own holistic treatment center with just $300, which he later sold for $45 million. Currently, John is the co-owner of JC’s Recovery House, a published author of three books, an inspirational speaker, and the chaplain for the North Miami Police Department. He is also working on opening another treatment center as part of his “third act.”

John specializes in holistic mental health and trauma recovery. He has appeared on numerous local and national radio and television shows as a respected addiction expert and has contributed to over 80 scientific peer-reviewed research papers.

In addition to his work in addiction recovery, John has been involved in martial arts for over 60 years. He was inducted into the World Martial Arts Congress Hall of Fame in 1996 and is a five-time US National Karate Champion and Metropolitan AAU Judo Champion. He currently holds a 10th Degree Black Belt in Karate, a 1st Degree in Judo, and a 1st Degree in Jiu-Jitsu.
