He Went From Meth Addict to Millionaire's Therapist — Matt Grace's Wild Recovery Story - E195

from Makes Sense - with Dr. JC Doornick · host Dr. Jean Claude Doornick

What if the thing that finally stopped your addiction... wasn't willpower? Today I'm sitting down with Matt Grace — a man who went from Ritalin to crystal meth to arrests and overdoses, and is now, twenty years later, the guy that Manhattan's wealthiest families call when their kid is dying from the same thing he almost died from. He's about to tell you the one thing his own parents did that kept him sick for years — and why he says addiction never lies, but families do. This is not a sanitized recovery story.
