In this week's episode, Casey and Dr. Matt are joined by Cord Stimpson to talk about how he was on track to become a successful soccer player after winning the national championship in 2011, how his family beliefs shaped him as a young adult, and why he started to rebel against his parents.

Then Cord opens up about immediately loving his first experience with opioids after getting surgery for an ankle injury, his decision to start using heroin, and what it was like to tell his family about his addiction.

We also dive into how he became addicted to Alcohol, his work with the SOAR program, and what he's up to now.
