Not the recovery movie version. The real version.I talk about:∙How addiction starts (often with prescription pills and trauma)∙The lies we tell ourselves to stay trapped∙Why rock bottom isn’t enough∙How I actually got clean (spoiler: not through traditional recovery)∙What recovery actually takes (structure, consequence, and love)If you’re struggling with addiction or you love someone who is, this episode is for you.
