In this episode I talk to Sean Coffey about his life experiences, substance abuse recovery, and much more!

I was so energised by my podcast with Sean, he manages tohave come through so much and has a great way of explaining how so that others can too!

I was pleasantly surprised by the fact we did not dwell onthe lows, or sensationalise how bad things can get when one experiences substance abuse, homelessness etc. But it was such and uplifting and articulate podcast describing how Sean did, and how anyone can help themselves and Seandescribed this beautifully.
