Danny Rich

Danny Rich has a tenacious drive to overcome whatever comes his way but a drug addiction almost took his life.  A local prep product, Danny enjoyed a stellar college career at Weber State and went on to play professionally as well. 
 
Rich, a 6-foot-3, 220-pound insider linebacker, came to Weber State from nearby Bonneville High School, where he was a standout football and baseball player. A team captain, Rich earned First Team All-Big Sky Conference honors in 1980 and 1981. He was named to the Big Sky Conference Silver Anniversary Team, established in 1988.
 
In 1980, Rich finished with 161 tackles, a pass interception, fumble recoveries, and nine tackles for loss.  Rich held the record for most tackles in a single game. Rich left WSU as the career tackle leader with 450.  Rich played for three seasons with the Los Angeles Express of the United States Football League. He was one of the USFL league leaders in 1983, topping the Express with 121 tackles, 3.5 sacks, and a pair of interceptions.

Mitch Frei

Mitch Frei is dedicated and has a passion to make a difference in the lives of those he mentors.  Mitch is currently a VP of sales at Aptive which is the largest door-to-door pest control company in the nation.  Mitch graduated (kind of) from Snow Canyon High School, where he got expelled with 1 month to go.  He was a 3-sport athlete in high school playing basketball, football, and baseball. 
 
After struggling with substances off and on in high school and the trials that they brought he was fortunate enough to separate himself from them and serve a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Brazil.  Upon returning he played basketball at Snow College where he met his beautiful wife.  He then transferred and played at Dixie State University where he switched and played two years of football. 
 
Once introduced to door-to-door sales while in college he became obsessed.  Last year his team generated over 25 million in revenue and his teams are some of the best in the country.  
 
Mitch’s passion is to inspire and give back.  He wants to show people that they are capable of so much more than they think. With the right support and people around you, anything is possible if you’re willing to truly work for it. 
 
You are going to love Mitch’s story and the way he lives his life.

Yvonne Rodgers

Yvonne Rodgers has one most difficult stories I have listened to but her will and perseverance to prevail are awe-inspiring!  She is 57 years old and a survivor of domestic violence.  She is a mother of 3 children and has 3 wonderful grandchildren.  Yvonne has not always had things easy in her life but has always been a hard worker and supported herself.  One of her children dealt with meth and heroin addiction but is now 8 years clean and sober.  
 
Yvonne is on a mission to share her story of having been both mentally and physically abused by her ex-husband for several years. The last and final incident, in which he snapped my arm, which required nine screws and a plate,­ leaving me permanently disabled in my dominant arm.  It has taken a lot of time for me to finally realize that there is another course of action for me to take. I have been diagnosed with PTSD.  I have realized that healing for me is to tell my story and help other women, to get laws changed that protect victims of domestic violence whether they are women or men, and to hold prosecutors and the justice system accountable to the law.
 
Yvonne’s story will touch your souls and she is living proof of the power of the human spirit.  Tune in and be blown away by her determination to heal, change laws, and help other victims of domestic violence.  She is a domestic violence advocate warrior.

Erin and Hayley Evans

Erin & Hayley Evans are two of the most inspiring people you will ever meet. After the death of their parents and Hayley overcoming addiction, they prove that you can overcome anything and help others in the process.  
 
Erin left the comforts of home to chase her dreams in the big city of New York, where she received a degree in fashion merchandising from the Fashion Institute of Technology. Encouraged by friends to write about how she coped with the most traumatic time of her life, she penned her family’s memoirs as a salve for others who are simultaneously battling a terminal illness and addiction. 
 
Hayley has been through more than any person should have to go through. She had a severe addiction to Heroin and Meth and a battle with body dysmorphic disorder. She now has turned all of that pain into purpose! Hayley believes that she went through all of this for a reason – to give back and help others. She has found her worth and purpose and now wants to share it with the world.

Cherice Ells

Cherice Nicole Ells has been through difficulties that would cause most of us to quit. Not Cherice!  She now holds her head high and shines bright for the whole world to witness.  Cherice is a daughter, granddaughter, co-parent, mother, and wife. She is an administrator for the non-profit Beyond Addiction Mosaic (B.A.M), an advocate for the unsheltered and addicted community, and the facility manager at Wasatch Recovery. She is also an addict in active recovery, with a former triple felony conviction and recently celebrated over 1,000 days sober.
 
Cherice discusses in detail her addiction, going to prison, being homeless, living in her car, and dealing and selling drugs on a daily basis.  She soon realized that failure was no longer an option. She landed a job in November of 2020 at Wasatch Recovery and quickly became a leader amongst her peers. She worked diligently to complete her court-ordered 200 hours of community service working with people in addiction and recovery. These opportunities helped her to find her passion — helping others find joy, happiness, and life through healing, sobriety, and self-care.
 
Cherice’s story will make you laugh, cry, and inspire you that anything is possible.  You are going to love her!
