John Eklund is a recovery advocate, speaker, founder of Recovery Alive and faith-driven leader who’s spent years walking alongside people as they rebuild their lives. With a deep passion for human transformation, John launched Living on Incline to explore a central question: What are we truly capable of when we stop coasting and choose to grow on purpose?

 

Inspired by a story from Runner’s World about the Manitou Incline — a steep trail in Colorado that symbolizes spiritual and personal struggle — John began to see the power of the metaphor: true change happens on the uphill.

 

This platform is for anyone ready to break cycles, grow through difficulty, and pursue the version of themselves God created them to be.
