***A QUICK WARNING***: This episode contains raw depictions of traumatic events, which include sexual abuse/violence towards minors and mention of a suicide attempt. Listener discretion is heavily advised.

Rex ShadesEagle overcame his addiction after 27 years by addressing his childhood pain. From the age of six to twelve, he was subjected to physical and sexual abuse until being expelled onto the streets for retaliating against his abuser. On the streets of South New Jersey, he would learn how to hustle, lie, cheat, and steal.  Rex kept using heroin for the next 20 years, going in and out of jail, until one night in October 2013 when the lies crumbled and a new man emerged.----Across the Web----
