My Opioid Addiction Led to a $60 Million/Year Company

from We Live to Build

My Opioid Addiction Led to a $60 Million/Year Company. In this incredibly raw interview, Jeff Sekinger shares his harrowing six-year battle with opioid addiction that began with a Percocet prescription for a high school football injury. He details hitting rock bottom—racking up over $80,000 in debt, isolating himself from family and friends, and feeling completely hopeless. The turning point came after getting out of rehab, when his cousin tragically died of an overdose just two weeks later. Jeff explains how he channeled his obsessive personality away from destruction and into an obsession for success, turning his own financial problems into a multi-million dollar business that is now on track to do $60 million this year. This is a story about hitting the absolute bottom and building a new life.
