Today's Dropping Bombs episode delivers a raw redemption story with Matthew De La Piedra — serial entrepreneur who went from homeless heroin addict to an $85 million healthcare company exit, multiple eight-figure businesses, and a substantial real estate portfolio.

Matt explains the moment he decided "enough was enough," how a recovery facility taught him the healthcare business, and why he's now applying that hunger to roofing, asphalt and contracting companies. He gets real about faith, fatherhood, and why those who've clawed back from rock bottom are often the most unstoppable entrepreneurs.

Matt's story is proof that your past doesn't matter; your next move does. And that next move starts the moment you hit play.
