What happens when a man with seventeen years in and out of the Oregon prison system decides to stop cycling and start building?
This book is what happens.
Mark Gailey spent nine years running Murder Ink, one of downtown Portland's most recognized tattoo studios, through a global pandemic, a year of nightly riots, the defunding of the city's police force, and open-air drug markets on every block. In January 2024, someone slipped something into his drink and he woke up fourteen days later in a rehabilitation center - replaced hip, collapsed ribs, three pages of medications he couldn't pronounce. Doctors told him he would probably never walk normally again.
What happens when a man with seventeen years in and out of the Oregon prison system decides to stop cycling and start building?
This book is what happens.
Mark Gailey spent nine years running Murder Ink, one of downtown Portland's most recognized tattoo studios, through a global pandemic, a year of nightly riots, the defunding of the city's police force, and open-air drug markets on every block. In January 2024, someone slipped something into his drink and he woke up fourteen days later in a rehabilitation center - replaced hip, collapsed ribs, three pages of medications he couldn't pronounce. Doctors told him he would probably never walk normally again.
Two months later he walked out. Six months after that, still in a wheelchair, he was assaulted again by a store manager in a Portland Safeway and kept going anyway.
What rebuilt him wasn't luck. It was a systematic deep dive into success psychology and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - applied to his own thinking, his own recovery, and his own life. Then he built a program around it.
The ARRT Program - Anti-Relapse and Recidivism Transition - is that program.
Built on CBT and success psychology, the ARRT Program is a practical, plain-language curriculum designed for people coming out of incarceration, fighting addiction, or simply trying to understand why their thinking keeps producing outcomes they don't want. It covers cognitive distortions, thought-feeling-behavior chains, identity rebuilding, relapse prevention, and goal setting - in language that doesn't require a psychology degree to understand.
This book is the full program woven together with the real story of how it came to exist. It is not a lecture. It is not a list of rules. It is a practical toolkit for changing the thinking that has been running the show - and a living demonstration that transformation is possible, no matter where you are starting from.
Endorsed by Dave Dahl, founder of Dave's Killer Bread, who spent 15 years in the Oregon prison system before building a $275 million company - and knows a thing or two about second chances.
If you've been told you can't change - this book is proof that you can.
