Nico Morales on Culture, Addiction & Finding Purpose

“I thought being a man meant hustling and surviving… until I lost myself.”
In this powerful episode of the Boy Man King podcast, Coach Crump and Chizzy sit down with Nico Morales to unpack his journey of growing up Latino, chasing manhood too early, battling addiction, and ultimately rebuilding his life through faith, discipline, and service.

We cover:
✅ Growing up Latino and the role of family, culture, and history
✅ Lessons from grandparents and childhood identity
✅ The high school hustle: work, sports, and street life
✅ Struggles with addiction, loss, and reflection
✅ How new habits and community service helped Nico rebuild his life

This is a story about redemption, resilience, and redefining manhood. If you know a brother walking this road, share this conversation with him.
