In this episode, TJ Woodward, an addiction counselor, inspirational speaker and author in San Francisco joins the girls to talk about the specific issues the LGBTQ community faces in addiction and recovery. He talks about the shifts he's seen over the course of his journey as a gay, sober man, his career, and what he believes is to come. Most importantly, the three talk about the urgent importance of having the difficult conversations around sexuality, violence, addiction, race, or any other issue that separates us.
