TRIGGER WARNINGS: substance abuse, addiction, alcoholism, relapse, rebab & mental health.

Continuing with the theme of truth this season, Tene's friend; Cody Craven is here to unpack part 2 of his story and the truth about getting sober. If you missed part 1 of Cody's story and the truth about rock bottom; please head back to episode 30 before diving into this one! Cody bravely picks up where he left off with being hospitalized from his alcoholism, moving home, AA becoming a trigger, multiple relapses and the exact moment the switch flipped for him. Cody describes in detail the day he took his last drink and how he finally asked for help. After completing a successful five and a half months in rehab (a specific program that he unpacks in detail), Cody has maintained a life free of alcohol. The truth about Cody's addiction is that it stemmed from trauma and an unmedicated childhood diagnosis. When Cody finally started to heal from the trauma that caused him to drink in the first place, he began to heal and create art again! Cody recounts his first performance contract after rehab and what is was like to maintain his newly sober lifestyle during a pandemic. Where is Cody today!? Follow him on Instagram @cravenation and listen to the end to hear his latest unreleased single! Tene is beyond grateful Cody has chosen her platform to share his remarkable story for the first time.
