Saving Families Through Law and Advocacy with Mark Astor | The End in Mind Podcast

In this episode of The End in Mind, I sit down with *Mark Astor*, attorney and founder of multiple law practices dedicated to helping families impacted by *substance abuse, addiction, and mental health challenges*. Mark’s journey took him from the courtroom as a young prosecutor to building *Drug and Alcohol Attorneys and Baker Act Attorneys*, where he now advocates for families who feel out of options. With decades of experience, Mark shares how he’s helped countless families reclaim hope, navigate Florida’s broken mental health system, and use the law as a powerful tool for healing and recovery. We dive into:

  • Why the legal system often fails people with behavioral health issues
  • How families can intervene before it’s too late
  • The truth about addiction, recovery, and relapse
  • Using guardianship laws in innovative ways to save lives
  • Why entrepreneurship and advocacy often go hand in hand

This conversation is raw, inspiring, and filled with practical insights for families, entrepreneurs, and anyone passionate about mental health reform.
