Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. On this episode, we talk with author, speaker, and transformational recovery expert Matt Grace.

His gripping and brutally honest memoir, GOD DOESN’T RELAPSE (out August 11, 2026), tells the raw story of addiction, self-destruction, and ultimately redemption. From a troubled youth marked by manipulation, anger, and entitlement, Matt’s life spiraled through substance abuse—including alcohol, cocaine, crack, prescription drugs, and meth—impacting every corner of his life.

But at his lowest point, everything changed. In a deeply personal and spiritual turning moment, Matt experienced a profound awakening that set him on a path toward healing, accountability, and purpose.

This conversation dives into the realities of addiction, the power of transformation, and what it truly takes to rebuild a life from the ground up.
