Gerad Davis On The 5 Things You Need To Be A Successful Author or Writer

Start writing today. Everyone has a book in them. I lacked the confidence for a long time to write a book because I believed that my story wasn’t important enough to share. Once I shifted my thinking to trying to help other people, everything changed.

As part of my interview series, I had the pleasure of interviewing Gerad Davis. Gerad is the co-author of the book, Before There Was an After.

The book is a powerful and emotional memoir by a mother and son that recounts their seven-year journey through his heroin addiction and multiple attempts at recovery. Honest, heartbreaking, and revealing, they share their very personal experience, mistakes and search for answers.

The book is intended to be a resource for families dealing with a loved one’s struggles providing insight, explanations, and validation that this insidious disease is a disease that affects the entire family.

Ultimately, Gerad got help at Burning Tree Ranch, where he is now an admissions counselor for Burning Tree Programs.
