Here is #1 with Curtis Doyle!
——
WOW! This one is intense... and dark, and eye opening, and hopeful, and inspiring, and emotional, and SO MANY other things.
In this episode, my friend Curtis Doyle takes us through his experience with drug addiction and recovery. From the first time he tried a Percocet in 2014 to overdosing on Fentanyl and dying for 3 minutes in 2020, and EVERYTHING in between.
Curtis really takes you into the world of what a human being dealing with this disease really faces. From the choices he made to the consequences of those choices, Curtis leans into vulnerability and shares ALL the details.
Today, he's been clean for almost THREE YEARS 🙌🏼 and has completely turned his life around. He went back to school for social work to help people with mental health and drug addiction issues and only has an internship left to complete!!
He's taking what he experienced and is using it to help other people, and it's truly inspiring!
… unfortunately, that's not the story for everybody.
Millions of people die every single year from drug and alcohol abuse and, as a society, we don't even talk about it. And we need to it. These are human beings. And this is a real problem.
The only way to normalize conversations like this is to have them over and over again and to have incredibly courageous people, like Curtis, share their story for others to hear.
My hope is that you listen carefully to this episode and embrace the discomfort of entering a world that you may know nothing about so you can learn something new that potentially changes your perspective ❤️
