Dean King, author of the highly acclaimed book King Hit, was born in Balmain, Sydney to alcoholic parents. In and out of boys’ homes and at the age of 14, Dean was put in a maximum security prison charged for murder.
In this chat, Dean talks about his moment of ‘spiritual awakening’, and how addiction recovery has brought so much changes, so much positive influences to his life and the people around him. 
‘If I was going to go down this road of recovery, I was going to have a quality of life. I was going to make things work, I was going to make things happen exactly how I made it happen looking for heroin, exactly how I made it happen when I wanted to have fun, when I was crazy…’ - Dean.
His exhilarating story is funny, yet exceptionally raw, honest and inspiring.
