I said to Joe, you know, we've given him everything, Joe, everything. Why would he turn to drugs? His daughters kept, where's daddy? Where's Daddy? Have you heard from Daddy?

We didn't know where he was or how to find him. On one side you have the grief of Bo and then dealing with the public scrutiny, especially around Hunter. I didn't believe Bo was gonna die. I think once we went through that, no matter how mean it got or cruel, it was like, buddy, you can't touch. Hey everyone, welcome back to On Purpose.

My guest today is Dr. Jill Biden, an educator, author, former First Lady of the United States, and someone who has dedicated her life to teaching. Today we talk about family, resilience, and the lessons she's learned through some of the life's biggest transitions. Joe Biden, welcome to On Purpose. Thank you.
